(LONDON DAILY MAIL) A ‘mysterious’ militia group that appeared on rooftop patrols in Ferguson pledging to protect private property has been ordered to stand down.
Oath Keepers, a vigilante organization consisting of former and current military, police and firefighters, abandoned their posts on Saturday night after being threatened with arrest.
Equipped with militia-style clothing and firearms, the Oath Keepers had been offering free security for businesses at risk of looting and arson in Ferguson.
