by

Just a week after a Tesla dealer was shot in Oregon, another shootout in the shop was reported, the local police announced this week.

The car dealership in Tigard, a city outside of Portland, was only hit on March 6th in the early Thursday morning, the Tigard Police Department said.

Tesla did not immediately answer inquiries for a comment on Friday, but the police said the recent shootings started on Thursday at 4:15 a.m.

The shooter fired more than a dozen times and caused “extensive damage to cars” and the already inspired showroom windows. A security guard was on site at the time, but was not injured, the police said.

The police work with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Bureau of alcohol, tobacco, firearms and explosives.

The police said they collect evidence and check surveillance material that was recorded in the area in the area of ​​the last shootout in the area.

“An ATF explosion detection K-9 was back on site to look for possible mussel covers,” said the police.

The authorities are not sure what motivated the shooter to target the dealer, but other Tesla dealers were “attacked throughout Oregon and the nation for political reasons,” said the police.

More about the shoot of last week

The first shootout, which took place last Thursday on March 6 at around 1:46 a.m., led to three damaged cars, a damaged wall and a broken computer monitor.

When Tesla's employees appeared for work this Thursday morning, they found that the building had been shot. According to the Tigard Police Department, the investigators said at least seven shots were fired.

Nobody was present during this shootout, so nobody was injured, the police said.

The investigators who edit the latest cases in Oregon ask for anyone who has seen or heard or heard at the Tigard dealer or send an email to tip@tigard-or.gov.

Why do people focus on Tesla?

Since President Donald Trump's re -election, SpaceX and Tesla owner Elon Musk have unofficially managed the Department of Government Efficiency or Doge.

Under the leadership of Trump and Musk, according to Reuters, around 100,000 of the 2.3 million federal employees of the state of Buyout were released.

Musk previously made headlines when on February 22, he asked the broadcast of mass -e -e -mails to federal employees and asked about what they did at work last week. He asked for five list signs and for workers to “CC”.

Tesla dealer that aims at several conditions

Reports on vandalism and fires were recently created at Tesla dealers in several countries, including other parts of Oregon.

In Salem, a 41-year-old man was charged with a Tesla dealer for two separate incidents this month, according to the American law firm for the Oregon district. The man, Adam Matthew Lansky, was accused of illegally obsessing a non -registered destructive device, the office said in a press release.

The first incident was on January 20, the office announced. Someone called the Salem Police Department for an individual Molotov cocktails in the dealership. On February 19, someone called civil servants to the same car dealership via an individual shootout into the building and a vehicle.

Both incidents were connected to Lansky by surveillance material and it was arrested on March 4.

Tesla's share has dropped by 50%since December, and President Trump has supported Muschus loudly during this time.

After five Tesla vehicles had recently been discovered in the White House, Trump said that he would consider categorizing these destructive Tesla dealers and committing violent actions against Tesla owners as “domestic terrorists”.

“I think (musk) was treated very unfairly by a very small group of people,” said Trump. “And I just want people to know that he cannot be punished to be a patriot. And he is a great patriot. “

Tesla dealer also stopped protests

Since Musk took on a role in the government of President Trump, the municipalities have held protests for retaliation measures.

Demonstrators in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, met as part of a “Tesla Takedown” event all over the country in a Tesla showroom, reported the Portsmouth Herald, part of the USA Today Network.

A demonstrator, Diane Kolifrath, said the group had appeared to prevent Musk from taking away the country's democracy.

“There are much more of us who want to preserve democracy than those who want to use us,” she told the newspaper.
