San Francisco, CA – A Texas man is facing federal charges after he allegedly threw a Molotov cocktail at a San Francisco residence and attempted to set a related business on fire on April 10, 2026.
Daniel Moreno-Gama, 20, of Spring, Texas, is accused of traveling to San Francisco from Texas to kill the CEO of a major company.
According to the federal criminal complaint filed today, Moreno-Gama approached the residences of the CEO and threw a Molotov cocktail, and then fled the premises.
“Violence cannot be the norm for expressing disagreement, be it with politics or any other matter,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche.
After throwing a Molotov cocktail at the CEO’s residences, Moreno-Gama allegedly went to the headquarters of the CEO’s company and attempted to break the glass doors with a chair and stated that he had come to burn down the location and kill anyone inside.
The complaint describes that when San Francisco Police Department officers arrived on scene, they found Moreno-Gama in possession of incendiary devices, a jug of kerosene, a blue lighter, and a document.
The document, entitled “Your Last Warning” by Daniel Moreno-Gama, advocated against the CEO and for the killing and commission of other crimes against the CEO and their investors, listing names and addresses that purported to belong to multiple CEOs and investors.
If convicted, Moreno-Gama faces a mandatory minimum sentence of five years’ imprisonment and a maximum sentence of 20 years’ imprisonment for damage and destruction of property by means of explosives, and a maximum sentence of 10 years’ imprisonment for possession of an unregistered firearm.
