Authorities have identified Matthew Livelsberger, a 37-year-old US Army veteran from Colorado Springs, as the suspect behind the explosion of a Tesla Cybertruck outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas.
Livelsberger rented the Cybertruck in Colorado Springs, drove it to Nevada, and reportedly packed it with firework mortars and gas cans, according to Denver7, turning the Cybertruck into a bomb. Livelsberger served as a Green Beret. He died in the explosion, which injured seven others.
State and federal authorities are investigating the explosion as an act of terrorism.
The suspect in the Bourbon Street massacre, Shamsud-Din Jabbar, is also a veteran of the US Army. Jabbar killed at least 15 people and injured three dozen when he drove a truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street. Jabbar was killed by police at the scene of his attack, and evidence suggests he might have been inspired by ISIS, evidenced by an ISIS flag found in his vehicle.
The FBI has declared the Louisiana tragedy an act of terrorism, but they currently find no definitive link between the New Orleans attack and the Las Vegas explosion. That being said, both Jabbar and Livelsberger served at the same military base in North Carolina, Fort Bragg, now known as Fort Liberty.
This is a developing story.
