FBI’s Most Wanted Fugitive Arrested In Wales

US and British authorities says one of the FBI’s most wanted terrorists was arrested in Wales after more than 20 years on the run on Tuesday.

Daniel Andreas San Diego, who has ties to animal rights extremist groups, is wanted by US authorities for his alleged involvement in two 2003 bombings in the San Francisco area.

Britain’s National Crime Agency said on X that the 46 year-old was detained on Monday in an operation supported by UK counterterrorism police and North Wales police.

He now faces extradition to the US to face charges.

FBI Director, Christopher Wray in a brief statement that Daniel San Diego’s arrest after more than 20 years shows that no matter how long it takes; the FBI will find you.

“There’s a right way and a wrong way to express your views in our country, and turning to violence and destruction of property is not the right way,” he concluded.

According to the FBI, on August 28 2004, two explosive devices went off about one hour apart on the campus of a biotechnology corporation in Emeryville, between California, Berkeley and Oakland.

Less than a month later, a bomb strapped with nails exploded at a nutritional products corporation in Pleasanton, east of San Francisco.

No deaths or injuries have resulted from the blasts.

A federal arrest warrant was issued for San Diego in October 2003 and in 2009.

The bureau said that he was added to the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorist List, making him the first domestic terrorist placed on this list.

The FBI had offered a reward of up to $250,000 for information leading to his arrest.
