A Tesla Cybertruck burst into flames outside President-elect Donald Trump's hotel in Las Vegas after a man inside sustained a gunshot wound to the head, believed to be self-inflicted, officials confirmed.

The deceased was identified as Matthew Livelsberger, a seasoned Green Berets veteran with a notable military career. Authorities also linked the incident to a separate tragic event in New Orleans involving Shamsud-Din Bahar Jabbar, who drove a truck into a crowd.

FBI is actively investigating potential connections between the incidents as terrorism concerns arise. The Cybertruck explosion contained fireworks and camp fuel, yet Elon Musk clarified the vehicle was not the cause.
