Local, state, and federal agents arrested 10 suspects on Wednesday they accused of being involved in the Whiskey Barrel Saloon murders. 

The ten suspects face felony complaints and hefty bonds ranging from $1 million to $7 million based on their alleged involvement in the gang related murders. 

Investigators noted in court documents they watched the bar's security video to piece together the investigation.

“Did reveal that there were multiple players involved in some type of way,” Sgt. Dillon Quirk with the Oklahoma City Police Department said.   

According to arrest warrants, the southwest Oklahoma City bar’s security video started around 8:45 pm. 

Police said one of the victims was seen walking through the bar and then left in a car. 

Police noted the man sent a text to another biker telling him "Come on now." 

Minutes later, a large group of motorcycles and several cars showed up to the bar. Police said the 10 men recently arrested were in the group.

At around 8:54 p.m., a large fight broke out between rival biker gangs.
