Sacramento Man Arrested for Politically Motivated ABC10 Shooting Threatening Trump Officials

Anibal Hernandez Santana, a 64-year-old man from Sacramento, was arrested for firing multiple shots into the ABC10 television station following protests related to Jimmy Kimmel's suspension. Authorities found a handwritten note in Hernandez Santana's car that criticized high-ranking Trump administration officials, including FBI Director Kash Patel, Deputy Director Dan Bongino, and Attorney General Pam Bondi, stating they were "next" due to alleged cover-ups involving Jeffrey Epstein. A weekly planner found in his home had the phrase "Do the Next Scary Thing" marked on the day of the shooting. While no injuries occurred, Hernandez Santana faces multiple state and federal charges, including assault with a deadly weapon, possessing and discharging a firearm within a school zone, and interfering with a radio communication station. After posting bail on state charges, he was quickly re-arrested by the FBI on federal charges. Prosecutors consider the attack politically motivated and warn that political violence will not be tolerated in Sacramento County.
