- Loveland, Colorado: A Tesla dealership experienced a fire after an incendiary device was thrown between two vehicles. This was the fifth attack on the same location in just over a month, with previous incidents involving Molotov cocktails and graffiti. Authorities believe the attacks are politically motivated.
- Tigard, Oregon: A Tesla showroom was shot at multiple times, with bullets piercing windows and damaging several vehicles. No injuries were reported, but police described the act as an “orchestrated attack” rather than random vandalism. Notably, while the bullets pierced the windows of the dealership, they were stopped by a bulletproof Cybertruck door.
- New York City: Six protesters were arrested outside a Tesla showroom in Manhattan. Demonstrators, chanting slogans against Elon Musk’s political ties, smashed windows and graffitied the property. Police intervened after clashes with Tesla security.
- San Francisco, California: A Supercharger station in the Bay Area was sabotaged, with cables cut and screens smashed. The incident followed an anonymous online call to action encouraging activists to disrupt Tesla’s infrastructure.
