The FBI has launched a new task to investigate attacks targeting Tesla, the electric vehicle company headed by Trump administration DOGE chief Elon Musk.
The announcement of the task force came hours after multiple incendiary devices were found at a Tesla showroom in Austin, Texas, the city where the company has its headquarters.
The incident was the latest in a series of attacks and vandalism on Tesla properties.
The New York Post first reported news of the task force.
“Can confirm,” FBI spokesman Ben Williamson tweeted in response to The Post’s report.
“The FBI has launched a Task Force in conjunction with ATF to coordinate investigative activity and crack down on violent Tesla attacks. More to come.”
