Sam Altman's Home Targeted a Second Time, Two Suspects Arrested (sfstandard.com)

(Sunday April 12, 2026 @11:34PM (EditorDavid) from the violent-crime dept.)


"Early Sunday morning, a car stopped and appears to have fired a gun at the Russian Hill home of OpenAI's CEO," [1]reports The San Francisco Standard , citing reports from the local police department:

> The San Francisco Police Department [2]announced the arrest of two suspects, Amanda Tom, 25, and Muhamad Tarik Hussein, 23, who were booked for negligent discharge... [The person in the passenger seat] put their hand out the window and appeared to fire a round on the Lombard side of the property, according to a police report on the incident, which cited surveillance footage and the compound's security personnel, who reported hearing a gunshot. The car then fled, and a camera captured its license plate, which later led police to take possession of the vehicle, according to the report... A search of the residence by officers turned up three firearms, according to police.

The incident follows Friday's arrest of a man who [3]allegedly threw a Molotov cocktail at Altman's house . The San Francisco Standard also [4]notes that in November, "threats from a 27-year-old anti-AI activist prompted [5]the lockdown of OpenAI's San Francisco offices ."

> Sam Kirchner, whose whereabouts have been unknown since Nov. 21, was in the midst of a mental health crisis when he threatened to go to the company's offices to "murder people," according to callers who notified police that day.

it's pretty obvious that ChatGPT came up with their game plan.

The greatest Virtue is to follow Tao and Tao alone.
The Tao is elusive and intangible.
Oh, it is intangible and elusive, and yet within is image.
Oh, it is elusive and intangible, and yet within is form.
Oh, it is dim and dark, and yet within is essence.
This essence is very real, and therein lies faith.
From the very beginning until now its name has never been forgotten.
Thus I perceive the creation.
How do I know the ways of creation?
Because of this.
