So why didn't they go ahead and kill them?
If you watch the video it looked you couldn’t see anymore snow kicked up or flashbangs after more agents and osp arrived.
from an article: "We also know that Ammon told his wife that the FBI agents were agitated about what had happened, that it didn't go right and they shouldn't have fired on him and killed him."
I presume the second wave of arriving fibbies would have become real cross had they continued.
The roadblock coonhounds that got Finicum got too excited.
