Car-ramming incident at power substation near Las Vegas investigated as possible terrorism
"Police say they're investigating a car that rammed into a power substation near Las Vegas, Nevada, as a "terrorism-related event." The driver was found dead at the scene from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, officials said.

The driver of the Nissan Sentra was identified as 23-year-old Dawson Maloney from Albany, New York, who had been reported missing, McMahill said. Investigators say he drove cross-country ahead of the attack.
The man had communicated with family before the crash, referencing self-harm, and said he was going to commit an act that would place him on the news. He referred to himself as a terrorist in a message sent to his mother, according to police.
Two shotguns, an assault rifle-style pistol and flame throwers were found in his rental car, McMahill said, and he was wearing what police described as "soft-body armor."
Evidence gathered at the scene led them to a nearby hotel room where they found explosive materials and multiple books "related to extremist ideologies," McMahill said. The books included anti-government right-wing and left-wing extremist material, environmental extremism, white supremacy he said."
