MISSOULA, Mont. — A manhunt was on Monday in the northwestern Montana woods for a former militia leader who authorities say fired on deputies and previously told police “he wasn’t going to be taken down like last time.”

Police have been searching for David Burgert since Sunday morning, after he fled in his Jeep when officers stopped to make a check on a vehicle at a picnic site near Lolo on U.S. Highway 12.

Burgert is the former leader of a Flathead County militia group known as Project 7, named for the number “7” on Flathead County license plates. Project 7 allegedly plotted to assassinate local officials, go to war with the National Guard and overthrow the federal government.
