A 64-year-old Sacramento man has been released from custody after his arrest in connection with a shooting that struck the city’s ABC10 news station Friday afternoon.

Suspect Anibal Hernandez Santana was arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon, shooting into an occupied building and negligent discharge of a firearm. Sacramento County Jail records show Hernandez Santana was released from custody on Saturday after posting $200,000 bail. 

Police responded to the television station’s building at about 1:30 p.m. Friday following reports of a shooting, according to FOX 11 LA.

There was a small protest outside the station on Thursday, according to The Sacramento Bee.

The outlet reported that a group of about 15 people were outside the building on Thursday protesting Disney-owned ABC’s decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel off-air for comments he made about slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk and his alleged assassin.

While Disney owns the ABC network, affiliate ABC10 is owned by Tegna, which Nexstar Media Group is in the process of acquiring for $6.2 billion, according to a statement from Nexstar.
