The Cybertruck bombing that happened outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas on New Year’s Day appears to be the suicide of a veteran who was struggling with PTSD and other issues, the FBI said Friday.

Spencer Evans, the special agent in charge of the FBI’s office in Las Vegas, also said during a news conference Friday that there was no evidence that Wednesday’s bombing was connected with the deadly terror attack in New Orleans that happened earlier in the day.

Police identified Matthew Alan Livelsberger, a 37-year-old active duty member of the Army Special Forces, as the driver of the Cybertruck. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said Thursday the county coroner had determined Livelsberger shot himself in the head before the bombing.

The Cybertruck had been rented in Denver by Livelsberger, the police department’s Sheriff Kevin McMahill said Thursday.
