❓WHAT HAPPENED: A man was arrested for shooting up the ABC10 building in Sacramento, California. Shots were fired at the building, striking it multiple times, though no injuries were reported.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Anibal Hernandez-Santana, who has a history of radical left output on social media, was arrested by Sacramento Police but later released. He was subsequently taken into custody by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

📍WHEN & WHERE: The incident occurred on Friday afternoon at the ABC10 building on the 400 block of Broadway in Sacramento.

💬KEY QUOTE: “This is unacceptable behavior. It’s not going to be tolerated in Sacramento,” said Anthony Gamble, a public information officer for the Sacramento Police Department.

🎯IMPACT: The shooting follows the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel by ABC for making false statements about Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk’s suspected assassin; however, the motive for the shooting remains under investigation, and any connection is purely speculative as of the time of publication.

A man identified as Anibal Hernandez-Santana, 64—accused of firing gunshots at the KXTV ABC10 station—is expected to appear in federal court on Monday. Sacramento police responded to the 400 block of Broadway just after 1:30 PM on Friday following reports of shots being fired. Upon arrival, officers found that at least three rounds had struck the building, hitting a window. No injuries were reported in the incident.

The Sacramento Police Department classified the incident as a drive-by shooting, stating that a vehicle drove by the building, fired shots, and then fled the scene. Hernandez-Santana was arrested on charges of assault with a deadly weapon, shooting into an occupied building, and negligent discharge of a firearm, but still released on $200,000 bail. However, he was later taken into custody by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on suspicion of willfully or maliciously interfering with a radio communications station.

Anthony Gamble, a public information officer for the Sacramento Police Department, said, “This is unacceptable behavior… It’s not going to be tolerated in Sacramento.”

Molly McMahon, a spokesman for Tegna, the parent company of ABC10, stated, “While details are still limited, importantly all of our employees are safe and unharmed. We are fully cooperating with law enforcement and have taken additional measures to ensure the continued safety of our employees.”

Notably, an examination of Hernandez-Santana’s social media found an extensive history of far-left political views, suggesting the shooting could have been inspired by the Democratic Party’s violent political rhetoric, or possibly ABC‘s suspension of late-night host Jimmy Kimmel over false statements regarding the assassination of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk.

In one post, Hernandez-Santana stated he would support the death penalty for Kirk’s assassin, 22-year-old leftist Tyler Robinson, only if President Donald J. Trump faced the death penalty for “insurrection.” Hernandez-Santana appeared to celebrate Kirk’s assassination in another post, writing sarcastically: “I think the word empathy, that made up New Age term, did a lot of damage to CK’s carotid artery.”

The suspected gunman also wished death upon President Trump just four days ago, writing in a post on X (formerly Twitter): “Where is a good heart attack when we need it the most?? Please Join in my thoughts and prayers for the physical demise of our fearful leader.”
