(AP) – Authorities say the highly decorated soldier inside the Tesla Cybertruck that burst into flames outside President-elect Donald Trump’s Las Vegas hotel shot himself in the head before the explosion.
Officials said the man likely planned to cause more damage but the steel-sided vehicle absorbed much of the force of the rudimentary explosive.
Clark County Sheriff Kevin McMahill said a handgun was found at the feet of the man believed to be Matthew Livelsberger, an active-duty U.S. Army soldier and member of its elite Green Berets. He has served in the Army since 2006, rising through the ranks, and was on approved leave when he died, the Pentagon said.
