Tesla truck blasts outside Trump’s hotel
A Tesla truck exploded outside Donald Trump’s Las Vegas hotel on Wednesday. Fireworks were kept in this truck. The truck driver died due to the blast. Apart from this, 7 people nearby were injured.
The driver of the Tesla Cybertruck has been identified as Colorado resident Matthew Livelsbarger (37 years). He has been associated with the US Army for 19 years.
Earlier, Tesla company owner Elon Musk had said that he considered it a terrorist attack. He said that if so, then the attackers chose the wrong vehicle. Musk said there may be similarities between this incident and another attack in New Orleans, because the vehicles used in both incidents were rented from the same car rental site Turo.
Musk claimed that the truck did not cause the explosion, rather the truck stopped the explosion from spreading, thereby reducing the loss of life and property.
At the same time, President Biden informed that the agency is investigating the link between the attack in New Orleans and the blast outside Trump’s hotel. On the other hand, Tesla owner Elon Musk posted on the blast in the Tesla truck and said that the blast in the truck was caused by the fireworks kept in it.
