Heavily armed sovereign citizen wounds deputy in doomed GA courthouse takeover plot

by Travis Gettys

Authorities shot and killed a sovereign citizen Friday morning outside a Georgia courthouse after he brought weapons and explosives in an attempt to take over the building.
Investigators said Dennis Marx arrived at the Forsyth County Administration Building with an assault rifle, bulletproof vest, smoke grenades, and a gas mask.
Marx also brought water and other supplies, ammunition, zip-tie restraints, and buckets of homemade explosives to the courthouse, said Sheriff Duane Piper.
"He came here with the purpose of occupying the courthouse," Piper said.
He deployed stop sticks at the courthouse entrance to prevent other vehicles from driving closer and opened fire from his vehicle.
Marx was met outside the courthouse by a deputy - who distracted and then fatally shot him through the windshield of the man's SUV.
The deputy, a 30-year veteran, was shot in the knee during the confrontation but was expected to recover.
