On New Year’s Day in Las Vegas, a Tesla (TSLA), Cybertruck exploded in front of the Trump International Hotel. The person who was inside died and seven other people were injured.

President Joe Biden said that law enforcement was  investigating "whether there's any possible connection with the attack in New Orleans," where a man intentionally drove a rented pickup truck into a crowd of people celebrating New Year's on Bourbon Street, leaving at least 15 dead and 30 injured.

“We have now confirmed that the explosion was caused by very large fireworks and/or a bomb carried in the bed of the rented Cybertruck and is unrelated to the vehicle itself,” Elon Musk is the Tesla CEO (CEO). He said so in a blog post. “All vehicle telemetry was positive at the time of the explosion.”
