@dailymail: Crisis negotiators rushed to a scene in Las Vegas where a person had barricaded himself onto a bus. The latest threat comes hours after a Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International Hotel, sparking fears of a coordinated terror attack. Police were on the scene near Fremont Street and Charleston Boulevard, along with SWAT teams and crisis negotiators. They have since taken the person into custody without incident. It is understood a person barricaded themselves onto a bus, however it was not immediately clear if there were others locked inside. The area surrounding the unfolding situation was closed to the public. It is understood the incident was first reported to police as a person wielding a knife, according to 8 News Now. Police have been praised for 'working overtime' today after earlier responding to a potential terror threat which injured seven and killed one. The $80,000 car - made by Trump ally Elon Musk's company Tesla - was seen in a fiery blaze outside the front revolving doors of the hotel, killing one and injuring seven at around 8.40am. Charred fireworks, gas cannisters and camping fuel were found in the bed of the truck when authorities were finally able to put out the fire. Police are working to determine whether the incident is connected to a terror attack in New Orleans in the early hours of New Years Day. Read more on DailyMail.com
