A person who is believed to be an animal-rights activist and was suspected of carrying out bombings at two places in Northern California more than twenty years ago has been apprehended in Wales, according to the FBI. The individual was also listed as one of the most wanted terrorists by the FBI.

Daniel Andreas San Diego, a 46-year-old activist, was being searched for his involvement in the bombings of two buildings in the San Francisco area. These buildings were home to companies that were connected to animal testing.

Mr. San Diego was charged with placing two explosive devices at Chiron Corporation, a biotechnology company in Emeryville, California, on August 28, 2003, and another on September 26 of the same year at Shaklee Corporation, a company that produces health, beauty, and household products in Pleasanton, California.

According to the F.B.I., Mr. San Diego focused on those corporations specifically because they had collaborated with a company that had carried out tests on animals.

Although no one was physically harmed in the attacks, the F.B.I. stated that the way the bombs were built, where they were placed, and when they were set off indicated that Mr. San Diego had the intention of causing significant harm. The explosions resulted in only minor damage to property.

According to the F.B.I., the first bomb exploded at Chiron in the morning, followed by a second bomb set to detonate an hour later. The agency believes the second bomb was meant to harm emergency medical personnel responding to the scene. Thankfully, the second bomb was discovered before it could explode, and the area was evacuated.
