Oklahoma City police have arrested two suspected Bandidos biker gang members as court documents reveal how the group allegedly surrounded a roadside saloon and ambushed a rival leader in a deadly shootout over the weekend.
The Bandidos are an international biker gang that the FBI has described as an "outlaw" organization.
Eric Oberholtzer, 29, the city's chapter president of a group called the Homietos Motorcycle Club, was under investigation for a prior shooting targeting Bandidos members in Texas when he died in a hail of gunfire Saturday, court documents show.
Two members of Bandidos-affiliated groups also died in the crossfire: Andrew Sump, 28, who was identified Thursday after notification of next-of-kin, and Francisco Tanajara, 38.

Tyler Myers, 34, an alleged Homieto who was hospitalized with multiple gunshot wounds after the fight, was arrested on first-degree murder charges shortly after the attack.
Court documents show that after reviewing surveillance video from the Whiskey Barrel Saloon, police learned that Myers had been attacked from behind and shot in the back in the melee.
"It is believed that [Sweet] and other members of the Bandidos Motorcycle Club came to this bar, with support clubs, for the purpose of attacking the Homietos and acting in concert," one of the documents, obtained by Fox News Digital, reads.

The videos, as described in the filings, show "a large group of motorcycles arrive and surround the bar just prior to the shooting."
The Whiskey Barrel Saloon attack came almost exactly a year after Oberholtzer and other Homieto members allegedly opened fire on a group of Bandidos in Texas. Suspected Bandidos members and others "maintained posts around the building as if for security."
