If anyone’s interested, Dave Miller, host of Oregon Public Radio’s weekday program Think Out Loud,interviewed Lavoy Finicum for today’s episode. (It’s the second half of the Soundcloud piece in the link.)
It’s…well, it’s really fascinating. I’m not sure if Finicum is merely unwilling to provide straight answers, or actually unable.

The flag in the courthouse had a fringe on it?
There are rumors on the internets that Ammon Bundy is in custody after some type of incident in which shots were fired, and that the hospital in Burns is on lockdown.
Pete Santilli: Militants supporter says Ammon Bundy in custody
Unsupported, uncomfirmed.
Local media is reporting 4 arrests, including Bundy, shots may have been fired, US-395 is shut down between John Day and Burns …
ETA: Injuries have been reported
Sounds like they nabbed him on the road going to another community meeting.
CNN has it -

Federal authorities arrested Ammon Bundy, the leader of a group of protesters occupying a federal wildlife refuge in Oregon, and several of his followers in a traffic stop Tuesday, a law enforcement official told CNN.
Shots were fired after authorities made the stop, the source said. It’s not clear who fired first.

KATU news on Twitter is saying there were at least 8 arrests.
Of course, this is all breaking and possibly unreliable
From KATU’s website … reporting 8 detained.
ETA KATU is Portland’s NBC affiliate.
But is Ammonia crucial to the thingy? Will the other excretia pack up and wander off, or are they planning to continue to hold the fort? Bundy was just a name, not the gang leader.
Oregon reporter Les Zaitz tweeted:
One dead, six arrested in traffic stop. Ammon Bundy, Ryan Bundy, Ryan Payne in custody.
All charged with federal felony - conspiracy to impede a federal officer by force.
The identity of the militant killed in the highway shootout is not yet being released.
Brian Cavalier, bodyguard to the Bundys, among those arrested.
Joseph Donald O’Shaughnessy, age 45, Cottonwood, Arizona, known as “Captain,” arrested separately in John Day.
Now the interesting part starts. Will they stand behind their sovereign citizen crap on trial, or get a real lawyer to save their asses to whatever extent possible.
So, one of the jackasses got killed while he and his pals were committing a felony. I know some of the states have “felony murder” statutes; does the federal government?
Totally unconfirmed Twitter rumor is that LaVoy Finicum is the one that died.
18 U.S. Code § 372 - Conspiracy to impede or injure officer
“imprisoned not more than six years” … I’m sure there will be 576 more charges before they start.
Yee-haw, bitches.
His name is very conspicuously absent from the arrest roll (Bob Finicum, I mean).
