Rise of the Moors leader bragged about guns before highway standoff

The self-proclaimed leader of the Rise of the Moors allegedly bragged about his arsenal of guns on YouTube a month before he and 10 other “heavily armed” members of the fringe militia group were arrested in Massachusetts Saturday.

Jahmal Latimer and his comrades were charged with multiple firearms offenses following an intense and bizarre standoff with law enforcement on I-95 in Wakefield — which lasted nine hours. Just a month earlier, a video posted on the Rise of the Moors Youtube account — which has over 16,000 followers — reportedly showed Latimer posing with a gun and boasting that he had three of them.
