FBI adds U.S. citizen to most wanted terrorists list

A 31-year-old vegan computer specialist from San Francisco has become the first domestic terrorist ever placed on the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists list, officials announced in Washington.

He’s third on the list, two spaces behind Osama Bin Laden and one space ahead of the man accused of bombing two U.S. embassies in Africa.

Daniel Andreas San Diego hasn’t killed anyone but is accused of setting bombs at two California biotechnology companies in 2003, said Michael J. Heimbach, assistant FBI director in the counterterrorism division. San Diego is associated with Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty, Heimbach said. The so-called animal rights extremist group has set out to disrupt the work of Huntingdon Life Sciences. The company conducts experiments on animals in its medical, agrochemical and industrial chemical research.

The two companies San Diego is accused of bombing are associated with Huntingdon, the FBI said.

San Diego may be living in Costa Rica, authorities said.
