An unauthorized vehicle crashed into a ditch at the main gate of the Air Force base after breaching the security gates. The vehicle, loaded with propane tanks, erupted into flames and killed the driver while military personnel were making their way to the vehicle, according to CBS.

Authorities said the driver ignited himself, which is why investigators are treating the incident as an act of terrorism, CBS reported.

The driver of the vehicle has been identified, but their name has yet to be released by law enforcement.

“The safety and welfare of our airmen, their families and our local community is our top priority,” Col. John Klein, 60th Air Mobility Wing commander, said in a statement. “I am extremely proud of how our first responders quickly addressed the situation to keep Travis and the surrounding area out of harm’s way. We are fortunate to have enduring relationships with federal and local law enforcement, and will continue to work hand-in-hand with them through the investigative process.”
