Las Vegas, NV (AP) - A Michigan man accused of creating a bomb hoax at the Trump International Hotel near the Las Vegas Strip told authorities he wanted to send a message that former President Donald Trump ruined his life, according to an arrest report.
Dandre Lundy remained at the Clark County detention Center following his arrest Tuesday at a Motel 6 on Tropicana just east of Las Vegas Boulevard.
Bomb technicians found that a suitcase and a duffel bag that Lundy was said to have left at a hotel service desk did not contain anything hazardous, while police discovered he took a taxi from the motel to the hotel and back.
Lundy told police he put a Bible, a rock, a $1 bill and handwritten “scriptures” in the suitcase, and “believed Trump had messed up his life for the last three years,” according to the arrest report.
Lundy, 44, of Farmingville, Michigan, appeared before a Las Vegas judge Wednesday on six felony charges including threatening an act of terrorism.
