The FBI has detained a 20-year-old in California after he communicated with the 15-year-old Wisconsin school shooter and allegedly plotted his own mass shooting at a government building.
The gun violence emergency protective order was served to Alexander Paffendorf, 20, in Carlsbad in San Diego County.
NBC News reported that FBI agents seized guns and ammunition from the Carlsbad, California, home of a 20-year-old male on Tuesday night. The seizure was authorized by a San Diego Superior Court judge who approved a “gun violence restraining order,” often called a “red flag” law, according to NBC 7.
The man was detained “after he was discovered plotting a mass shooting with the Madison Wisconsin shooter,” a Carlsbad police officer wrote in the gun order.
According to the order, the 20-year-old suspect “admitted to the FBI agents” that he talked with the teen girl before she killed two people and wounded six others at a Christian school in Madison, Wisconsin, on Monday morning.

The man allegedly told her “that he would arm himself with explosives and a gun and that he would target a government building.” The Wisconsin school shooter was found at the scene with a self-inflicted gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the hospital. Police say that she used a handgun.
Authorities are still working to determine a motive for the shooting at Abundant Life Christian School.
Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes told CNN on Tuesday that authorities “have been made aware of a manifesto … or some type of letter that’s been posted by someone who alleged to be her friend.”
