A man accused of throwing a Molotov cocktail at OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s home in San Francisco pleads not guilty to state charges, according to multiple reports. Daniel Moreno-Gama is charged with attempted murder and attempted arson after the alleged attack on Altman’s residence. One report states that Moreno-Gama’s attorney argues the incident “stemmed from a mental health crisis and not the desire to harm,” describing the alleged act as related to mental health rather than intent. The filings and court proceedings reported do not indicate a change in the charges at this time, and the plea entered means the case proceeds under the prosecution’s allegations. The reports are consistent that a Molotov cocktail was used and that the incident involved Altman’s home. While the defense frames the alleged attack as arising from a mental health crisis, the criminal charges remain that Moreno-Gama attempted to murder and commit arson. The case’s next steps are not detailed in the provided summaries.
