Authorities announced on Thursday they are still investigating why a suspect detonated a Tesla Cybertruck outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas a day earlier. "The motivation at this point is unknown," said FBI Special Agent Spencer Evans, as quoted by AFP . He noted it was "not lost" on investigators that the explosion occurred outside a hotel associated with US President-elect Donald Trump, with a Tesla vehicle which is owned by Elon Musk, a prominent Trump supporter. "But we don't have information at this point that definitively tells us" it was motivated by any specific ideology, Evans added. A law enforcement official said on Wednesday , hours after the explosion and fire, that the Vegas incident was being investigated as a possible act of terrorism. Earlier on Thursday, authorities revealed the suspect in the detonation had suffered a gunshot wound to the head. "We also discovered through the coroner's office that the individual had sustained a gunshot wound to the head prior to the detonation of the vehicle," said Las Vegas Sheriff Kevin McMahill, suggesting the possibility of suicide before the explosion.
