(Malden, MA) -- A half-dozen members of the Rhode Island-based Rise of the Moors group that was caught in a standoff with state police in Massachusetts over the Independence Day weekend are being held without bail. The group which has been described by the Southern Poverty Law Center as anti-government had the encounter with police on I-95 in Wakefield after a trooper observed a cache of guns and ammo in their vehicles, but no firearm licenses. The Moors were dressed in military fatigues and said they were going to Maine for training. The no-bail ruling came at a dangerousness hearing in Malden, Mass district court on Friday.
