Fox News reports it is not clear what the circumstances were regarding the arrest of Bundy’s group, which resulted in shots being fired and the death of Finicum, who was 55. The protest group wrote on its Facebook page:

Levoy Finicum was Shot and murdered in Cold blood today in Burns Oregon by the FBI and State Law enforcement. He had his hands up and was shot 3 Times. This Man Is one of the best Patriots, Husband, Father, Grandfather, friend and Neighbor, that this world will ever know. Spread this far and wide!

A Facebook account reportedly operated by one of Finicum’s 11 children, Thara Tenney, also said he was cooperating, according to Fox.

“I want the world to know how my father was murdered today,” Tenney’s post said. “His hands were in the air and he was shot in the face by the American authorities. Ammon Bundy reported there are six witnesses to this evil.”

Cliven Bundy, who led a stand-off with the federal government in 2014 and is the father of Ammon and Ryan, said Finicum died supporting his beliefs.

“He was a wonderful man,” he told CNN affiliate KTNV. “He was a student of the Constitution. He was interested in freedom, and I think he gave his life where he felt it was best.”

With the group’s leaders in custody, and one dead, it’s unknown whether the occupation will continue.

At the refuge, the New York Times reported a spokesman said the group would wait out the night. Jason Patrick, an occupier, told the newspaper that several people were still inside and that the mood was “prepared” but calm. “They said ‘peaceful resolution,’ but now there is a dead cowboy,” Patrick said, adding he believes the FBI was “hellbent” on war.
