THE F-B-I DETAINED A CALIFORNIA MAN THEY SAY WAS PLOTTING AN ATTACK DURING CONVERSATIONS WITH THE 15-YEAR-OLD GIRL SUSPECTED OF COMMITTING A DEADLY SCHOOL SHOOTING IN MADISON, WISCONSIN.

POLICE AND F-B-I AGENTS SWARMED THE HOME OF 20-YEAR-OLD ALEXANDER PAFFENDORF IN CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, TUESDAY, TO SEIZE HIS GUNS AND AMMO AFTER A JUDGE’S ORDER UNDER THE STATE’S RED FLAG LAW.

THE COURT’S ORDER CAME FOLLOWING ALLEGATIONS PAFFENDORF WAS PLANNING A MASS SHOOTING WITH NATALIE “SAMANTHA” RUPNOW, THE SUSPECTED WISCONSIN SHOOTER.

OFFICIALS SAY DURING AN INTERVIEW WITH F-B-I AGENTS PAFFENDORF ADMITTED HE TOLD RUPNOW HE PLANNED TO ARM HIMSELF WITH EXPLOSIVES AND A GUN IN AN ATTACK ON A GOVERNMENT BUILDING.

THE F-B-I DID NOT PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS ON THE PAIR’S COMMUNICATION.

IT’S ALSO UNCLEAR IF AUTHORITIES ARRESTED PAFFENDORF OR IF HE FACES ANY CHARGES YET.

BUT LAW ENFORCEMENT SAYS THERE’S CURRENTLY NO THREAT TO THE LOCAL  COMMUNITY.

MADISON POLICE SAY RUPNOW OPENED FIRE AT A PRIVATE CHRISTIAN SCHOOL, KILLING A TEACHER AND STUDENT AND INJURING SIX OTHERS MONDAY.

POLICE FOUND HER BODY AT THE SCENE WITH A SELF-INFLICTED GUNSHOT WOUND.

A MOTIVE FOR THE MASS SHOOTING IS STILL BEING INVESTIGATED.
