FBI Task Force Probes Ideological Attacks on Tesla

The FBI has formed a specialized task force to investigate a surge of violent attacks on Elon Musk's Tesla vehicles and facilities, which are being treated as acts of domestic terrorism. In collaboration with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the task force is responding to recent incidents involving arson and vandalism at Tesla showrooms, charging stations, and vehicles across the United States. These attacks are ideologically motivated, linked to anarchist and anti-government sentiments, and include incendiary devices found at a Tesla location in Austin, Texas. The FBI and other law enforcement agencies are coordinating efforts to identify and apprehend those responsible, with several suspects already arrested. This escalation of violence coincides with Musk's political involvement as an advisor to President Trump, prompting further scrutiny and backlash against Tesla. The FBI urges vigilance at Tesla locations as investigations continue.
