TL;DR Summary

A 23-year-old man from New York drove to a Las Vegas suburb, crashed a rented Nissan into a power-substation gate, and fatally shot himself; police treat the episode as terrorism-related after finding firearms, flame-throwers, and an array of explosives materials (thermite, ammonium nitrate) plus extremist literature in his hotel room. The FBI and LVPD say there is no ongoing threat, but it’s considered a credible counter-terrorism event, with Albany-area searches uncovering gun parts and a 3D printer.
