Two bombs exploded about one hour apart on the campus of a biotechnology corporation in Emeryville, California, in August that year, according to the agency.<\/p>\n
Then, in September of the same year, one bomb strapped with nails exploded at a nutritional products corporation in Pleasanton, also California.<\/p>\n
According to the FBI, San Diego has ties to “animal rights extremist groups” and there was a reward of $250,000 (\u00a3199,000) for information leading directly to his arrest.<\/p>\n
FBI Director Christopher Wray said: “There’s a right way and a wrong way to express your views in our country, and turning to violence and destruction of property is not the right way.”<\/p>\n
The UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA) made the arrest on Monday, the organisation confirmed, in the Conwy area of Wales.<\/p>\n
It is understood he was arrested at a property in a rural area next to woodland.<\/p>\n
He appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday as the process to extradite him to the US to face charges began.<\/p>\n
“Daniel San Diego’s arrest after more than 20 years… shows that no matter how long it takes, the FBI will find you and hold you accountable,” Mr Wray added.<\/p>\n
The bombings didn’t cause any injuries, but authorities said the biotechnology blast was meant to harm first responders.<\/p>\n
A group called Revolutionary Cells-Animal Liberation Brigade claimed responsibility for the bombings, citing the firms’ ties to Huntingdon Life Sciences – a company targeted by animal rights extremists over its work with experimental drugs on animals.<\/p>\n
San Diego disappeared into a transit station on 6 October 2003, when the FBI had him under surveillance as he parked his car near downtown San Francisco.<\/p>\n
The agency didn’t see him again, but said there have been several sightings reported around the world.<\/p>\n
He was added to the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorist List in 2009, becoming the first person suspected of domestic terrorism included.<\/p>\n
The FBI claimed he was known to follow a vegan diet and worked as a computer network specialist.<\/p>\n
He was also “known to possess a handgun”, the agency said on its website, and had a tattoo on his chest with the words “it only takes a spark”.<\/p>\n
That tattoo, along with others, may have been “altered or covered”.<\/p>\n
His wanted poster said in large text: “SHOULD BE CONSIDERED ARMED AND DANGEROUS”.<\/p>\n
