FBI's long-wanted suspect found living quiet life in Welsh mountains

A deserted cottage in north-welsh mountains tells a story of quick escape: unlocked door swinging open keys still inside‚ half-finished tasks scattered around and vegan food containers spread across kitchen counters

The peaceful scene changed when Daniel Andreas San Diego – who had a 200k-pound reward for his capture was arrested in Maenan community this monday. The 46-year old computer expert was on FBIʼs most-wanted list (the first domestic terrorist to make it there) for alleged bombings in California; he spent about two decades avoiding capture

The property named Llidiart y Coed sits in a well-picked spot: its hidden but not too far from civilization with mountain-bike trails right behind it. The previous house-owner mentioned selling it to someone calling himself Danny Webb in mid-2023 who spoke with what he thought was a canadian accent

Local residents share their after-arrest realizations:

• Some noticed a black Seat car driver who never waved back
• Others reported seeing him on walking trails
• A few mentioned his presence in nearby Tyʼn-y-groes village
• One person claimed spotting someone similar living rough by old railway tracks

“Weʼve got friends who live right up near him and we havent seen them for years either“ says David Mees whoʼs lived here 30+ years: his partner mentioned seeing unusual people in the area last week

The quiet village pubs dont recognize the fugitive from photos but discussions about him fill evening conversations. “An FBI Most Wanted living among us thats exciting isnt it“ says one unnamed bar worker (who noticed increased customer chatter about the topic)

A drone now hovers above the empty house where playstation games sit visible through windows – including ironically Call of Duty. The community seems more concerned about unwanted attention than having had a wanted man nearby: “I dont want to be named because it feels like were being watched now“ explains one resident
