    Massive Federal Raid in Lenawee County || WXYZ.com | WXYZ-TV / Detroit | Detroit News, Weather, Sports and More

    ADRIAN, Mich. (WXYZ) - The FBI, the Department of Homeland Security and the Joint Terrorism Task Force are all involved in raids around Adrian that may be connected to a militia group.

    The FBI conducted multiple raids throughout Saturday and into Sunday, with one of them centered on a property where known members of a militia live. The land is owned by a man who lives in a house on the property. His sons live in two mobile homes that are also on the property. Saturday's raids were concentrated on those mobile homes.

    Helicopters were spotted in the sky for much of the night, and agents set up checkpoints throughout the area, including in Sand Creek and Clayton in Lenawee County. Witnesses tell Action News that it was like a small army had descended on the area.

    A command center, including two satellite trucks and a radio tower, had been set up at the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Department in Ann Arbor. It has since been dismantled.

    Federal agents will not comment on the investigation, only saying that they are serving a number of search warrants and that the warrants are sealed. Action News has learned that an unknown number of arrests have also been made. An unconfirmed report indicated that at least six people were arrested coming into Michigan from Ohio.

    Members of a number of militia groups say that the raids are connected to raids in Indiana and Ohio. However, the FBI has not confirmed that.

    Anyone else heard about this???

    That's how Ruby Ridge and Waco started. It's also how it will start if they are coming for guns.

    Secret arrest and unknown suspects? What did they do to have so much federal LEO come down on them? Why can't they do this kind of thing with the gangs that run so many drugs and illegal guns from Mexico?

    Makes one wonder is our president might be behind this because of them not liking him.

    Things to think about.

    The arrests and raids in Michigan and Indianapolis are related to alleged militia activity in the region, but are not related to international terrorism. There is not a current threat to the public, according to a law enforcement source.

    Indianapolis has a militia?
    Seriously, WTF :dunno:

    I would think if the "Indianapolis Militia" is selling pipe bombs, THERE IS A CURRENT THREAT TO THE PUBLIC!

    DUH!

    However I ain't buying this story! The "Indianapolis Militia"..........seriously?

    You must remember, white conservatives are terrorists, according to this White House. Speaking out against the rule of Obama, as many of us have done, is dangerous.

    I suspect we'll be seeing more violence, soon. It's just going to get worse, and worse. With every push back the government makes, someone else will push back.

    Hope those local cops have their families in a safe location. The feds aren't going to get everybody they are after, not right away. Some of those folks may be planning their own weird version of martyrdom, and with the FBI's record of executing the wives of those who have offended the government, it's possible some of those suspects may feel they have nothing to lose, and no choice but to return the favor. I obviously have no way of knowing whether this is true or not, but would not be surprised.

    Things are getting worse. Lots and lots more people getting desperate, and feeling like they are running out of options. Here's hoping the November elections, whichever way they go (assuming they happen at all), can restore some sense of the government's legitimacy in people's minds.
