Donald Trump’s Las Vegas hotel: Driver whose truck exploded on New Year’s Day was ‘active US special forces member’

The driver of a car which violently exploded outside Donald Trump’s Las Vegas hotel was an “active-duty US Army Green Beret”, according to US media reports.

Matthew Alan Livelsberger’s Tesla Cybertruck had exploded outside the Trump International in the Nevada city – killing the driver and injuring seven others.

On Thursday, the US Army said that Livelsberger had died – but did not explicitly say it was in the dramatic New Year’s Day explosion.

And now, a law enforcement source familiar with the investigation has confirmed he was an “active” special forces member, according to CNN.
