Man who was arrested in San Jose because he supposedly typed a Tesla, as can be seen in virus videos

A probably politically motivated act of vandalism has led to a arrest in San Jose after a man who was seen in a viral video that a Tesla was keyed in a Costco parking lot.

The incident occurred on March 14th between 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. in the Costco on the Senter Road in San Jose, as Kron4 reported. The video was recorded by the car of the car and divided by the owner of the Tesla. It shows a white, bearded man in a USA jacket that rises from his own car, which is parked next to the white Tesla, looked around and then the side of the car coast.

The San Jose police were able to arrest quickly.

“Within a few than 24 hours after the incident with viral vandalism … we successfully identified, found, found and arrested the person who is responsible for this law of vandalism,” said Paul Joseph, chief of police from San Jose in a statement on Monday. “This senseless crime and his subsequent consequences should serve as a clear memory: No matter that you have personal beliefs or frustrations, you do not justify illegal actions. I ask everyone to respect each other and above all respect the law.”

Tesla Showrooms and individual Tesla owners were the goals of the protest and anger in the Bay area and elsewhere in the country, such as the CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, in the interest of the interest of the trim expenditure for several government agencies and departments – but without obvious method, analysis or transparency.

The national turmoil prompted some Tesla owners to sell their cars and/or to pick up car stickers and “I bought it before we knew that Elon was crazy.”

The mayor of San Jose, Matt Mahan, tweeted about the Costco car park and the arrest on Monday evening and said: “Clock a car because you don't like the person who designed it as if you are breaking a watch because she does not like the time that it shows.

He thanked the police in San Jose for their quick action and said: “[I] Urgently urged us to express our opinion where they are important – in the ballot box, not in a parking lot. “

The suspect in question was not publicly identified (looks like a Trump voter, no?).
