Surge in Tesla Vandalism Sparks Investigations Nationwide

Recent incidents of vandalism targeting Tesla vehicles across the U.S. have raised concerns about politically motivated attacks. A New Hampshire hotel guest was filmed keying a Tesla Cybertruck, leading to an ongoing investigation and charges pending against the alleged vandal. In San Francisco, another Tesla owner found their vehicle spray-painted in a Whole Foods parking lot, with the act being condemned as harmful to private citizens rather than a political statement. The Metropolitan Police Department in Washington, D.C., is investigating a series of vandalism incidents where political hate speech was spray-painted on multiple Tesla vehicles, suggesting a potential hate crime. Meanwhile, a man identified as Nicholas Carrion admitted to vandalizing a Tesla out of road rage, claiming his actions were not politically motivated despite the rising trend of such incidents. Authorities are urging witnesses to assist in identifying suspects involved in these vandalism cases.
