Tigard Police, FBI examines shooting at Tesla car dealership

The police in Tigard, Oregon, said on Thursday that they were working with the FBI to examine shots that were released overnight in one of the company's retail stores overnight.

Nobody was injured at the shootout in the city of Tigard outside of Portland. Monitoring video showed that the shots were fired around 1:46 a.m. when the building was not occupied.

The investigators believe that at least seven shots were fired, which damaged three cars and shattered windows, said the Tigard police in a statement. A ball went through an office wall and a computer monitor.

Tigard's police said she was working with federal partners, including the FBI and the Bureau of alcohol, tobacco, firearms and explosives to ensure “a thorough and wide examination”. The police had no description of a suspect.

The shootout takes place for a week after the federal prosecutor in Denver has charged a woman in connection with vandalism against a Tesla dealer in Colorado, including Molotow cocktails that are thrown on vehicles, and the words “Nazi cars” that were painted on the building.

At the beginning of this month, the police arrested a man in connection with two incidents in Salem, Oregon, after a report that someone thrown Molotov Cocktails on a Tesla dealer reported, reported the Salem Stasman journal.
