A Tesla Cybertruck in Novato was vandalized early Saturday morning, with surveillance footage revealing a hooded suspect damaging the vehicle and covering cameras. Police believe the act may be politically motivated amidst ongoing protests against the company and its CEO, Elon Musk. The vehicle owner, Jason Bedell, is offering a $25,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. This incident follows a previous attack on another Tesla in the area, prompting law enforcement to investigate potential patterns of vandalism targeting the brand in the community.
The vandalism, captured on Ring surveillance, involved a suspect slashing tires, damaging the windshield, and leaving a note, prompting police to seek tips from residents.
Cybertruck owner Jason Bedell speculated the attack was politically motivated, suggesting some individuals express their frustration towards Elon Musk by targeting uninvolved parties.
With a prior incident involving a Tesla being keyed in Novato, police indicated they are vigilant and investigating a pattern of attacks against Tesla vehicles.
Police are urging community members to review surveillance footage for unusual activity during the time of the vandalism, enhancing their investigative efforts.
