A manifesto that exhibited hatred for the porn industry was reportedly linked to the suspect in a shooting Monday outside the offices of Pornhub’s parent company.

Suspect and Canadian native Seth Hatfield, 25, was killed after he allegedly opened fire while an officer and civilian also died during the shootout, The Montreal Gazette reported. Hatfield was linked to a 104-page manifesto that exhibited a clear animus towards the pornography industry among other things, according to the outlet. Authorities have not publicly commented on the document, Newsweek reported. (RELATED: Bondi Beach Hero Allegedly Assaulted His Father, Police Say)

The manifesto allegedly took aim at capitalism, Zionism, modern relationships, and other targets, according to The Gazette. The outlet decided not to directly publish the document.

The manifesto allegedly listed elite politicians and bankers, influential Zionists, international real estate brokers, oil executives and “pickup artists” as “valid class A targets.” It also reportedly listed “the headquarters of international pornography companies” as well as those who “actively promote pornography to the public.”
