The big picture: Clark County/Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Sheriff Kevin McMahill said at a Wednesday afternoon briefing that "camp fuel canisters and large firework mortars" were found in the back of the truck.

The Tesla Cybertruck explosion and fire at the entrance of the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas Wednesday morning is being investigated as a possible terrorist act, according to a law enforcement official who has been briefed on the investigation.

The explosion caused minor injuries to seven people but virtually no damage to the hotel. Clark County Sheriff Kevin McMahill said Matthew Livelsberger, a 37-year-old Green Beret, likely planned a more damaging attack but the steel-sided vehicle absorbed much of the force from the crudely built explosive.

The explosion was caused by fireworks and explosives in the bed of the rental Cybertruck, which had no faults, according to data.
