In a shocking incident in Las Vegas, a Tesla Cybertruck rented by Matthew Alan Livelsberger erupted in flames just outside President-elect Donald Trump's hotel, resulting in his death and injuries to seven others. Livelsberger, 37, was an active-duty US special forces soldier based in Germany. According to police reports, he arrived in Las Vegas from Colorado and rented the Cybertruck for this trip.
The explosion occurred after the vehicle was filled with fuel canisters and firework mortars, leading to speculation about Livelsberger's intentions. While the soldier's body was discovered with a gunshot wound and burned beyond recognition, officials are confident it was him but await DNA confirmation. Sheriff Kevin McMahill indicated that they suspect it to be a suicide connected to the bombing. Livelsberger’s father stated he seemed to be in good spirits during their last conversation over the holidays.
The situation is still developing as authorities seek to uncover more details about the incident and Livelsberger's state of mind before this tragic event.
