One of America’s most wanted men has been arrested in Wales 21 years after a double bombing in San Francisco.<\/p>\n

Daniel Andreas San Diego, 46, was held after an operation backed by counter terrorist police and North Wales Police on Monday. <\/p>\n

He now faces extradition to the US after being arrested at a property in a remote rural area near woodland in north Wales by Britain’s National Crime Agency (NCA).<\/p>\n

The US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) director Christopher Wray said: “Daniel San Diego\u2019s arrest after more than 20 years as a fugitive for two bombings in the San Francisco area shows that no matter how long it takes, the FBI will find you and hold you accountable.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He said: “There\u2019s 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.”<\/p>\n

The NCA said he was arrested at the request of US authorities and appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court in London on Tuesday, where extradition proceedings began. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“He was remanded in custody,\u201d a spokesman said.<\/p>\n

The FBI previously called the suspect – who was born in Berkeley, California – an “animal rights extremist” – who was wanted for allegedly bombing two office buildings in the San Francisco area in 2003.<\/p>\n

He became the first alleged domestic terrorist to be added to the US agency\u2019s most wanted terrorists list.<\/p>\n

There was a reward of $250,000 (\u00a3199,000) for information leading to his arrest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
