PORTLAND, Ore. -- An indictment unsealed Thursday morning shows that Ammon Bundy and his followers were indicted by a federal grand jury for Conspiracy to Impede Officers of the United States.

The indictment stems from the siege of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge by the group.

Charged were Ammon Bundy, Jon Ritzheimer, Joseph O'Shaughnessy, Ryan Payne, Brian Cavalier, Shawna Cox, Peter Santilli, Jason Patrick, Duane Leo Ehmer, Dylan Anderson, Sean Anderson, David Lee Fry, Jeff Wayne Banta, Sandra Lynn Pfeifer Anderson and Kenneth Medenbach.

The last four listed are the four holdouts who remain on the refuge.

"Beginning on Jan. 2, 2016, defendants and conspirators brandished and carried firearms on the premises of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge and prevented federal officials from performing their official duties by force, threats and intimidation," the indictment reads.
