Two white supremacist extremists and their cache of guns and Nazi paraphernalia were discovered in a suburban Washington state home.
Thurston County Sheriff Derek Sanders announced the coordinated operation along with the Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID), discovering “military-grade weaponry and armor” in the City of Lacey, near the state capital of Olympia.
Sanders announced the discovery in a Facebook post and said that the CID asked his office for assistance Monday as an FBI special weapons and tactics team executed a search warrant “as a result of a violent robbery and theft of military weaponry/armor.”
Sanders’ statement said two people were arrested and booked into Thurston County Jail for investigation of firearms-related offenses. Their names have not been released, pending federal charges, the department said.
“Despite requests to set bail at only $5,000, Superior Court granted the Prosecutor’s request and set bail at $500,000 each,” Sanders said.
