Standoff Between Heavily Armed Men And Police Shuts Down Part Of I-95 In Wakefield
[WBUR] A group of heavily-armed men are engaged in an ongoing standoff Saturday with Massachusetts police, prompting shelter-in-place orders in some areas and sparking massive delays on the holiday weekend as a portion of Interstate 95 remains shut down.

The standoff began around 2 a.m. when police noticed two cars pulled over on I-95 with hazard lights on, authorities said at a Saturday press briefing.

Between eight to 10 men were clad in military-style gear with long guns and pistols, Mass State Police Col. Christopher Mason said.

The men refused to put down their weapons or comply with authorities' orders, claiming to be from a group "that does not recognize our laws," police said. They took off into a wooded area, where two men have been arrested.
Update at 1 p.m. ET from links in comments: They identified themselves as Rise of the Moors, a Moorish Sovereign Citizens group.
