One person was killed and at least seven were injured after a Tesla

Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International Hotel in Las

Vegas on Wednesday morning, the authorities said, and officials

were investigating any possible links to an earlier attack on a crowd in New Orleans.

Sheriff Kevin McMahill of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police

Department said during a news conference that the authorities

“believe this to be an isolated incident,” but have not yet ruled out a

connection to the Wednesday morning attack in New Orleans that

killed at least 15 people.

Sheriff McMahill said the authorities had found gas canisters,

camp fuel canisters and large firework mortars in the back of the

truck. It was unclear how they had been ignited, Sheriff McMahill said.

“There is no further threat to the community,” Sheriff McMahill

said. As of Wednesday afternoon, there was no indication that the

explosion was connected to ISIS, which President Biden said had

inspired the New Orleans attack, but the investigation remainsongoing, he said.
