The authorities have shared some disturbing notes that the Cybertruck bomber left on his phone before blowing up the vehicle.
On January 1, a terrifying incident took place outside of the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas.
The dramatic video, which has been circulating all over social media, showed the moment the futuristic-looking vehicle suddenly burst into flames, sending shattered glass, metal panels, and other debris flying in all directions.
The electric pickup truck was destroyed, leaving behind a fiery wreck and a thick plume of smoke covering the area.

Speaking of the incident, Las Vegas Metropolitan Sheriff Kevin McMahill told reporters: “A 2024 Cybertruck pulled up to the front of the hotel, and in fact, I can tell you, it pulled right up to the glass entrance doors of the hotel. We saw that smoke start showing from the vehicle, and then a large explosion from the truck.”
According to officials, at least seven witnesses suffered minor injuries in the explosion, while the driver of the truck, who was later identified as 37-year-old US Special Forces soldier Matthew Livelsberger, died due to his injuries.
While the investigation for a motive behind the tragic incident continues, authorities have recently revealed the two disturbing notes the bomber left on his phone before blowing up the vehicle.
“Fellow Servicemembers, Veterans, and all Americans, TIME TO WAKE UP! We are being led by weak and feckless leadership who only serve to enrich themselves,” the first message read.
The second stated: “We are the United States of America, the best country people to ever exist! But right now we are terminally ill and headed toward collapse.”
It continued: “This was not a terrorist attack, it was a wake-up call. Americans only pay attention to spectacles and violence. What better way to get my point across than a stunt with fireworks and explosives?”
He also added: “Why did I personally do it now? I needed to cleanse my mind of the brothers I’ve lost and relieve myself of the burden of the lives I took.”
The news comes shortly after the revelation that his ex-girlfriend shared texts she received from him in the days before the explosion.
On December 29 at 9 AM, Livelsberger texted Alicia Arritt from Denver to say: “I rented a Tesla Cybertruck. It’s the s***.”
“I feel like Batman or Halo,” he added lightheartedly, also sending photos of the vehicle, too.
At the time of his death, Livelsberger was married and had recently welcomed a child.
The investigation into the matter continues.
