Investigators search for motive in fertility clinic explosion

The person killed in the Saturday bomb explosion outside a fertility clinic in Palm Springs, California, is a 25-year-old from Twentynine Palms, the FBI said Sunday. Authorities believe Guy Bartkus was trying to livestream the attack.

An “anti pro-life manifesto believed to be authored by the suspect has been located and is being examined by the FBI,” according to an X post from US Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli.

Officials are also aware of a rambling audio recording posted online in which a man describes his intention to attack an in vitro fertilization clinic, and they are working to determine whether it is associated with the incident, the law enforcement source told CNN. #CNN #News
