Tesla CEO Elon Musk has attributed the incident to “terrorism” after multiple cars reportedly caught fire at one of his Las Vegas facilities.
According to widespread reports, several Tesla vehicles were set on fire in Las Vegas on Tuesday, with videos circulating on social media showing the cars engulfed in flames.
While US law enforcement has yet to officially comment on the incident, Musk responded to the reports on X (formerly Twitter), condemning the act as an “evil attack.”
“Terrorism,” Musk wrote on X.
“This level of violence is insane and deeply wrong,” he added. “Tesla simply manufactures electric cars and has done nothing to warrant these malicious attacks.”
