Arrest Made in Reseda: Violent Extremist Found with Explosives and Nazi Memorabilia
Federal prosecutors in Los Angeles have filed drug and weapons charges against Ryan Scott Bradford, a man arrested in Reseda after an FBI search of his RV and home uncovered homemade gun parts, an improvised explosive device, explosive chemicals, and Nazi memorabilia. Agents described Bradford as having a "violent extremist ideology and intent to kill Jews." The search also revealed ammunition, 3D printed pistol receivers, parts to convert guns into fully automatic machine guns, and a calendar with a handwritten New Year's resolution about killing all Jews. Bradford was linked to anti-Semitic messages posted on an internet forum and was tied to white extremist communities.
