Daniel Andreas San Diego, 46, was wanted in connection with two bombings in the San Francisco area in 2003

A fugitive who was on the FBI's most wanted list for more than two decades has been caught in Wales, according to reports. Daniel Andreas San Diego, 46, was wanted by the FBI in connection with two bombings in the San Francisco area in 2003.

He has been on the run ever since and was put on the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorists list in 2009. According to the Mirror, he was arrested by officers from the UK National Crime Agency in the Conwy area of Wales on Monday.

The Director of the FBI, Christopher Wray, said San Diego's arrest showed that the US government agency will track down suspected criminals "no matter how long it takes". He said: “Daniel San Diego’s 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.

"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.” On August 28, 2003, two bombs exploded around one hour apart at the offices of a biotechnology corporation in Emeryville.

On September 26 the same year, a bomb strapped with nails exploded at a nutritional products corporation in Pleasanton. San Diego was indicted in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, in July of 2004. On the FBI's official Most Wanted website, his listing read: "Should be considered armed and dangerous."

Prison will be no fun. But while he was free, I bet he had a Wale of a time.

It depends on who's bombing and what's being bombed. There was supposed to be a mandatory minimum sentence of 45 years. But...

How did a guy named “Daniel Andreas San Diego” hide in Wales? And in places named Llandudno and Betws-y-Coed?

You’d think a highly wanted international fugitive would choose a country with a lower density of security cameras.
