"According to a Fox News report, Livelsberger rented the all-electric pickup through Turo while on leave from his Special Forces unit. He filled the rented Cybertruck with fireworks, gas cans, and camping fuel before driving it to the hotel shortly after 8:40 a.m. on January 1. Surveillance footage showed him pouring accelerant into the truck bed moments before detonation, confirming premeditation."
"Livelsberger left a manifesto on his phone, which was later deemed classified by the Department of War. This case was then handed over to federal authorities. Still, the LVMPD and federal investigators noted in their report that the incident was a "vehicle-borne improvised explosive device" (VBIED) attack "with the potential to cause mass casualties and extensive structural damage." Officials, however, stopped short of labeling it terrorism."
Matthew Livelsberger, a Green Beret on leave, rented a Tesla Cybertruck through Turo, filled it with fireworks, gas cans and camping fuel, and drove it to the Trump International Hotel on January 1. Surveillance shows him pouring accelerant into the truck bed before detonation, confirming premeditation. Livelsberger died by suicide before the explosion, which injured six people. He left a manifesto on his phone, later classified by the Department of War, and federal authorities took over the case. Investigators labeled the incident a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device with potential for mass casualties, but officials stopped short of officially calling it terrorism.
