"Grand Jury Indicts Cliven Bundy, 4 Others For Nev. Standoff"

"A federal grand jury yesterday indicted Cliven Bundy and four others on 16 felony charges for their roles in Bundy's armed standoff with the Bureau of Land Management at his Bunkerville, Nev., ranch in April 2014.

The other four -- Ammon Bundy, 40, of Idaho; Ryan Bundy, 43, of Nevada; Ryan Payne, 32, of Montana; and Pete Santilli, 50, of Ohio -- are all behind bars in Portland, Ore., and already face a felony charge for their roles in the 40-day Malheur National Wildlife Refuge occupation that ended last week.

Cliven Bundy was arrested in Portland on Feb. 10 after stepping off a plane on his way to support his sons Ammon and Ryan and the remaining occupants at Malheur, who were surrounded by the FBI."
