Wed Mar 19 10:33:42 UTC 2025: ## Tesla Service Center Attacked in Las Vegas: FBI Investigating as Possible Terrorism

**Las Vegas, NV –** A Tesla Collision Center in Las Vegas was the target of a violent attack overnight, leaving at least five vehicles damaged and two completely destroyed by fire. The FBI is investigating the incident, which involved Molotov cocktails, gunfire, and the word “Resist” spray-painted on the building’s doors, as a potential act of terrorism.

According to Assistant Sheriff Dori Koren of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, the perpetrators used Molotov cocktails to set several Teslas ablaze. Video footage shows a suspect, dressed entirely in black, moving between the burning vehicles. While no injuries were reported, firefighters successfully extinguished the flames before they could reach the cars’ batteries.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk condemned the attack on social media, calling it “terrorism” and describing the level of violence as “insane and deeply wrong.” He emphasized that Tesla simply manufactures electric cars and has done nothing to warrant such violence.

This incident is part of a broader pattern of attacks against Tesla facilities and vehicles across the US, including vandalism, graffiti, and shootings. The attacks have prompted strong condemnations from President Trump, who suggested classifying them as domestic terrorism, and Attorney General Pamela Bondi, who vowed severe consequences for those involved, including those funding or coordinating the crimes. The FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force is working alongside the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department to identify and apprehend the perpetrators. The investigation is ongoing.
