The suspect in the Tesla Cybertruck explosion outside Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas was identified on Thursday by local outlets as 37-year-old Matthew Livelsberger, a Colorado native.

Police have not officially named the suspect and an inquiry from Mediaite was not immediately returned. KOAA first reported Livelsberger’s name, citing local senior enforcement sources. Livelsberger reportedly lived in Colorado Springs, had multiple addresses tied to his name, and has a military background.

    Absolutely nothing, it’s utterly useless. The only useful info at this point would be if they can find some kind of evidence to prove this wasn’t an accident, either some kind of intentional ignition source in the car, or a manifesto or some kind of proof of motive. Until either of those surface I’m just chocking this one up to Teslas doing Tesla things with some new years fireworks and camping supplies making it extra spicy this time.

      It’s like someone just posted an article asking if there was a link to this guy and the person in New Orleans because they were both veterans (like almost 16 million other Americans) and they used Turo (the most popular vehicle rental app) to rent their trucks.

      Yes. That’s the link. And that’s probably it.
