Far-right antigovernment terrorist Ammon Bundy was arrested Friday night on an outstanding warrant while he attended his son’s football fundraising banquet in Idaho, the Daily Beast reports. The warrant was filed after Bundy ignored a number of court summons to appear as part of a defamation suit Bundy lost by default, with the jury awarding St. Luke’s Hospital in Boise more than $52 million.
Bundy was arrested by Gem County deputies for the warrant, issued by neighboring Ada and held on $10,000 bond. While he was being processed at the Gem County jail, a group of protestors, numbering barely in the double digits, protested outside demanded he be freed. He was, eventually, when he made bail.
