According to the first elements of the investigation, the Tesla Cybertruck was rented in Colorado and arrived in Las Vegas at 7:30 a.m. Its driver drove directly in front of Trump International and an explosion occurred in the car, which then caught fire around 8:30 a.m. The hotel was then evacuated, but the damage around the car remained limited. The driver has not yet been identified and the condition of his body suggests that it could take time.
