Tesla Supercharger Explosion in Washington Investigated as Domestic Terrorism

A suspected bomb caused significant damage to a Tesla charging station in Lacey, Washington, as federal authorities intensify their response to escalating attacks on the company’s infrastructure.

A Tesla Supercharger cabinet in Lacey, Washington, exploded early Tuesday morning, with investigators suspecting a small bomb as the cause.
Local police and the FBI are treating the incident as an act of malicious mischief and have launched a joint investigation into the explosion.
Tesla is working with law enforcement and Puget Sound Energy to review footage, restore service, and address security concerns at the damaged station.
The explosion is the latest in a series of politically charged attacks targeting Tesla properties, including vandalism, arson, and sabotage, linked to protests against Elon Musk's political ties.
The FBI has established a task force to investigate these incidents, which have been designated as domestic terrorism by the Trump administration.
