Tesla Cybertruck Explodes Outside Trump Hotel in Las Vegas, Killing One
Las Vegas, Nevada – A Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International hotel in Las Vegas early Wednesday morning, killing at least one person and injuring seven others. The incident sent shockwaves through the city and prompted a swift response from authorities.
Las Vegas Police Chief Kevin McMahill described the scene as a “violent explosion” that occurred as the Cybertruck stopped at the hotel’s glass entrance.
Dramatic video footage captured the moment the truck erupted in flames, followed by a series of smaller explosions resembling fireworks.
“One person died inside the cybertruck,” McMahill confirmed, adding that seven others sustained minor injuries. The hotel was evacuated as a precaution.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk took to social media, stating that the explosion was likely caused by “very large fireworks and/or bombs” placed inside a rented Cybertruck. He emphasized that Tesla’s “entire senior team” was investigating the incident, calling it “something we’ve never seen before.”
The White House confirmed that President Joe Biden has been briefed on the explosion and has directed his team to provide any necessary assistance.
This incident comes on the heels of another tragedy earlier in the day, a fatal car crash in New Orleans that claimed the lives of at least 15 people.
The cause of the explosion remains under investigation, and authorities have not ruled out the possibility of terrorism.
