Prosecutors believe the suspect who allegedly opened fire on the ABC10 station in Sacramento on Friday was “politically motivated,” Sacramento County District Attorney Thien Ho told National Review, explaining that a search of the suspect’s vehicle yielded a note that criticized members of the Trump administration and appeared to reference the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk.
The Sacramento Police Department executed a search of 64-year-old Anibal Hernandez Santana’s home, where they not only found the semi-automatic nine millimeter handgun he allegedly used to fire into the station multiple times, but also various pieces of evidence that suggest that he was motivated by anti-Trump animus. The arraignment, originally scheduled for Tuesday, was moved up to Monday afternoon because of the nature of the crime. Monday’s arraignment, however, was postponed because the suspect was still in federal court.
