Police in Oregon are investigating a recent incident of gunshot damage at a Tesla dealership in Tigard, which occurred overnight. This incident is part of a troubling trend of anti-Tesla vandalism, fueled by ongoing protests against Elon Musk. With reports of Molotov cocktails thrown at other Tesla locations, authorities suspect political motivations behind these attacks. Surveillance footage details the shooting incident, which saw at least seven shots fired, damaging company property. The FBI and other federal agencies are assisting in the investigations as arrests continue in relation to these events.
Surveillance footage indicates that the gunfire at the Tigard, Oregon Tesla showroom began around 1:46 a.m., with at least seven shots fired, indicating targeted vandalism.
While the motivation for this has not been confirmed, we are aware that other Tesla dealerships have been targeted across Oregon and the nation for political reasons.
In light of the recent rise in vandalism, Tigard police stated they are collaborating with the FBI and ATF to investigate and gather substantial evidence.
