Alexander Paffendorf, 20, Ordered to Surrender Guns After Messaging Wisconsin Shooter Who Killed 2, Injured 6
Dec 19, 2024, 07:03 AM
A California judge has ordered a 20-year-old man, identified as Alexander Paffendorf from Carlsbad, to surrender his firearms and ammunition. This decision follows revelations that Paffendorf communicated with Natalie Rupnow, the 15-year-old girl accused of a deadly school shooting in Wisconsin, where she killed two individuals and injured six others. Authorities allege that Paffendorf expressed intentions to carry out his own attack on a government building, potentially using a firearm or explosives. The order to surrender his weapons was issued amid ongoing investigations into the communications between Paffendorf and Rupnow, who had two guns during the Wisconsin incident. It remains unclear whether Paffendorf has been arrested in connection with these plans.
