Tesla Targeted in Late-Night Fire Attack

According to police, the incident took place around 2:45 a.m. at the Tesla Collision Center on West Badura Avenue. Assistant Sheriff Dori Koren didn’t mince words at a press briefing, calling it a “targeted attack against a Tesla facility.”

At least five Tesla vehicles were damaged in the blaze, police confirmed.

“Communications received information that an individual had set several vehicles on fire in the parking lot and caused damage to the property,” the department stated in an email update.

FBI Joins Investigation

The FBI quickly confirmed its involvement in the case, stating that agents were on the scene assisting the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD).

“Violent acts like this are unacceptable, regardless of where they occur,” said FBI Special Agent in Charge Spencer Evans. He also issued a stern warning to anyone contemplating similar attacks.

“It’s a federal crime,” Evans said bluntly. “We will come after you. We will find you.”

Elon Musk Reacts

Tesla CEO Elon Musk didn’t stay silent, responding to a video of the attack shared by the Review-Journal on X (formerly Twitter).

“This level of violence is insane and deeply wrong,” Musk posted. “Tesla just makes electric cars and has done nothing to deserve these evil attacks.”

A Troubling Pattern?

The attack on the Tesla facility comes just weeks after another high-profile Tesla-related incident in Las Vegas. On New Year’s Day, a rented Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International Hotel.

Authorities later revealed that Matthew Livelsberger, a 37-year-old active-duty military operations sergeant and former Green Beret, had shot himself in the head just moments before the explosion. Seven bystanders were injured in the blast near the Las Vegas Strip.

With back-to-back Tesla incidents making headlines, authorities are now looking closely at whether there’s any connection—or if Tesla is becoming an unexpected target in a broader wave of violence.
