It has also emerged that Livelsberger had reportedly been back in touch with ex-girlfriends in the days before he carried out the explosion. He boasted to one of them, Alicia Arritt, that he “felt like Batman” after renting the Tesla Cybertruck. Arritt, his ex-girlfriend of three years from Colorado Springs, said the 37-year-old got in touch with her on December 29 out of the blue.
Arritt met Livelsberger in 2018 when she was working as an Army nurse stationed at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany while he was in Special Forces, the outlet reports. Arritt, a single mother, told the newspaper she was surprised to hear from Livelsberger after the pair split in 2021 because “he wanted to focus on his career.”.
