Gunfire Damages Tesla Dealership in Oregon as Police Investigate Possible Political Motive

Shots fired overnight at a Tigard Tesla dealership caused significant damage but no injuries, with authorities linking the incident to a series of politically charged attacks on Tesla properties nationwide.

At least seven shots were fired at a Tesla dealership in Tigard, Oregon, early Thursday morning, damaging three cars, shattering windows, and piercing a computer monitor.
No injuries were reported as the property was unoccupied at the time of the shooting, which occurred around 1:46 a.m., according to surveillance footage.
Police are collaborating with federal agencies, including the FBI and ATF, to investigate the incident and its potential connection to other vandalism targeting Tesla properties.
The attack follows recent politically motivated incidents at Tesla dealerships in Oregon and Colorado, including Molotov cocktail attacks and graffiti labeling Tesla vehicles as 'Nazi cars.'
Authorities have not yet identified a suspect in the Tigard shooting but are exploring links to broader protests against Tesla CEO Elon Musk's controversial role in the Department of Government Efficiency.
