A vandal was filmed attacking a parked Cybertruck in Novato, slashing its tires and throwing a rock at the windshield. This incident is part of a troubling trend of violence against Tesla vehicles, spurred by political controversies surrounding Elon Musk. The Novato Police have already linked a previous attack on another Cybertruck to separate individuals. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi condemned these incidents as domestic terrorism, warning perpetrators of severe legal consequences, including multi-year minimum sentences for charged acts.
With Elon Musk's controversial rise to power in the White House and subsequent gutting of government departments, his futuristic vehicles have gone from being largely adored by the left and clean-energy advocates to becoming a political punching bag and target of violence.
The Department of Justice has already charged several perpetrators with that in mind, including in cases that involve charges with five-year mandatory minimum sentences. We will continue investigations that impose severe consequences on those involved in these attacks.
