Norman Hsu Arrested, Exclusive Audio
Democratic fundraiser Norman Hsu, who failed to appear at a bond hearing Wednesday in San Francisco, was taken into custody in Grand Junction, Colorado, Thursday evening, the FBI and local police said.
Hsu had posted a $2 million bond last Friday after he turned himself in to authorities in California on a 16-year-old grand theft conviction, a San Mateo County, California, Superior Court spokeswoman said. But a bench warrant was issued for his arrest after he failed to show up for a bail reduction hearing Wednesday.
Grand Junction police Sgt. Lonnie Chavez said Hsu became ill while traveling on an Amtrak train as it passed through Grand Junction. Amtrak officials called for an ambulance, and Hsu was taken off the train and to St. Mary's Hospital for treatment, Chavez said.
