Leaders of occupation at refuge in Oregon arrested; 1 killed, another wounded in highway confrontation

The Washington Post reports:
In a sudden and dramatic development in the 25-day armed occupation of a central Oregon wildlife refuge, eight people, including occupation leaders Ammon and Ryan Bundy, were arrested Tuesday, most of them after being stopped along a highway about 50 miles north of the refuge. During an apparent confrontation on the road, gunfire was exchanged, killing one and wounding another.
No word yet on when the Koch brothers will get blamed for this one.
