Nineteen year old Danny Merkelson of Illinois was ordered for a “no knock raid” by the ATF for “harboring automatic rifles without proper licensing, creation and storage of man made explosives, and threats against the government”. At approximately 4:30 AM, ATF agents breached the apartment of the teen only to receive fire from the main corridor of the apartment. One agent was killed by a non-explosive charge in the doorway and two others were shot dead in the main corridor. The rest of the agents retreated and began a siege. “We will more than likely throw tear gas in there” said Senior Agent Friedman, “This a known terrorist, he’s heavily armed and dangerous”. Casualties so far include the three agents and Merkelson’s dog.

“This a serious issue” said Agent Laurel, “The last thing we want is another Waco or Ruby Ridge.” Correspondents have said that they believe Danny fired at them using an Automatic Assault Rifle from PSA, an alt-right militia manufacturing group from South Carolina. Our team has reached out to PSA and they declined to comment on it.

So far a standoff is occurring, with protestors around the apartment with signs “Remember Waco!”, “Ruby your own Ridge!” and “Join or Die!”. The song ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ can be heard playing from the complex. Merkelson, a self proclaimed member of the Boojhadeen, an alt-right fandom expressing “beliefs of liberty and that the 2nd amendment is infallible” has set up several “Air Bag” IED’s amongst his house, and some reports say he has Claymores attached to Roombas our sources site.

“That’s the issue- the government is infringing on our rights and we’re tired of it” a protestor is said as stating. Updates will be posted daily.
