Multiple outlets report that information attributed to a purported manifesto linked to the San Diego mosque attack is describing planned violence against multiple targets. The materials are described as rambling and hate-filled, and are said to have been shared online via a niche file-sharing website. According to the reporting, the document indicates the attackers intended to carry out an assault on three suspected targets, using language that emphasizes maximizing death and destruction.
Some coverage also references disturbing video footage connected to the attackers’ final moments in a vehicle before they died, though details are presented differently across accounts. Across the reports, the common element is the allegation that investigators have reviewed or identified content that outlines a target plan and ideological motivation consistent with the attacks.
The sources provided do not include confirmation of the document’s authenticity beyond investigators’ handling as described in the articles, nor do they detail the specific locations or identities of the alleged targets in the excerpted text.
