The mystery over why an Army Special Forces soldier detonated a Cybertruck outside the Trump Las Vegas hotel on New Yearβs Day has only deepened with the final investigative report released by cops Monday.
The 70-page Las Vegas Metropolitan Police post-crime dossier confirmed that Matthew Livelsberger,Β a 37-year-old active memberΒ of the elite Green Berets, left a βmanifestoβ on his phone, although the Department of War has deemed it classified and will not release it.
Livelsberger β known in the Army as aΒ βRambo-type patriotβΒ β loaded up the rented truck with fireworks, gas tanks and camping fuel before detonating it outside the lobby of the Trump property on the Vegas strip.
The attacker, believed to have been a staunch Trump supporter, βsimultaneouslyβΒ shot himselfΒ as the truck began to burn, authorities said.
The blast injured six people inside the hotel.
Despite the War Departmentβs decision to keep Livelsbergerβs manifesto under wraps, the LVMPD report references several clues about his motives.
He left behind a note claiming the attack wasnβt terror-related but a way for the solider to βcleanseβ his mind β while blasting the βfeckless leadershipβ of a US that is βnear collapse,β authorities said.
βThis was not a terrorist attack, it was a wake up call,β Livelsberger wrote in a notes app. βAmericans only pay attention to spectacles and violence. What better way to get my point across than a stunt with fireworks and explosives.β
One of the attackerβs notes was sent to Shawn Ryan, a former Navy SEAL and CIA contractor. It has not been released in its entirety.
The local copsβ report calls the explosion βa premeditated attack involving a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device, with the potential to cause mass casualties and extensive structural damage.β
Livelsberger had served in the Army since 2006 and in Afghanistan in 2009. He was on leave from assignment in Germany at the time.
His wifeΒ hadΒ dumped himΒ six days before over an argument about his apparent infidelity, prompting him to leave his Colorado Springs home the day after Christmas, two sources familiar with the investigationΒ told The PostΒ in January.
His wife β who had a baby daughter with Livelsberger β reportedly told him that she knew he had been cheating, sources said.After leaving Colorado, LivelsbergerΒ rented the Cybertruck through the Turo appΒ and made his way to Vegas, LVMPD said.
The FBI had been investigating whether Livelsbergerβs target β the iconic hotel that bears the name of President Donald Trump β had been politically motivated.
LVMPD officials have claimed they have no control over the release of the contents of Livelsbergerβs manifesto.
βThe Department of Defense has exercised control over the manifesto,β the department told theΒ Las Vegas Review-Journal.
The local cops claimed, β[T]he manifesto does not record any public business and thus is not a public record. Instead, it is evidence collected by law enforcement pursuant to an investigation.β
Their own after-action report details the police response and ensuing investigation from several agencies, including the US Army Criminal Investigations Division, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the FBI.
