Madison: A California man was reportedly detained for allegedly planning a mass shooting at a government building in a parallel and coordinated attack with 15-year-old Natalie ‘Samantha’ Rupnow, who carried out a deadly shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin, killing a teen student and a teacher.
Alexander Paffendorf, 20, reportedly exchanged messages with Rupnow about targeting a local government building while she shot up the school, a gun violence restraining order obtained by CBS 8 revealed.
“During an FBI interview, Paffendorf admitted to the FBI agents that he told Rupnow that he would arm himself with explosives and a gun and that he would target a government building,” the Carlsbad Police Department stated in a two-page emergency restraining order.
