A 37-year-old active-duty special forces soldier, Matthew Alan Livelsberger, has been identified as the individual who rented a Tesla Cybertruck that exploded outside of Donald Trump's Las Vegas hotel. Livelsberger's identity is pending confirmation through DNA evidence, as authorities believe he is the same individual found deceased in the vehicle. The body exhibited severe burns and a gunshot wound to the head, suspected to be self-inflicted, according to Las Vegas Sheriff Kevin McMahill. The blast, which resulted in minor injuries to seven bystanders, was traced to a vehicle loaded with fuel canisters and firework mortars.

Details surrounding the incident, including motivations, remain unclear, with Sheriff McMahill indicating a possible suicide bombing connection.
