You might think that hiding for over two decades would be enough time to escape justice, but that's not the case for Daniel Andreas San Diego. This suspected animal rights extremist was recently caught in the UK, after being on the run for over 20 years. San Diego is wanted in the US for planting bombs at two companies in California back in 2003. These bombs didn't hurt anyone, but one was meant to harm first responders. The FBI had been searching for San Diego for years, even offering a $250, 000 reward for information leading to his arrest. He was finally caught in a rural area in Wales, showing that no matter how long you hide, justice can still find you.

San Diego's story starts in the US, where he grew up in an upper-middle-class suburb of Marin County. He worked as a computer network specialist and was known to carry a handgun. In 2003, he disappeared after the FBI had him under surveillance. For the next 20 years, there were sightings of him around the world, but he always managed to stay one step ahead.

The companies targeted by San Diego were connected to Huntingdon Life Sciences, a company that tests drugs and chemicals on animals. A group called the Revolutionary Cells-Animal Liberation Brigade took responsibility for the bombings. San Diego's arrest shows that the FBI is determined to bring him to justice, no matter how long it takes.
