Police are investigating seven Tesla charging stations set on fire in Massachusetts, with evidence pointing to intentional arson. The fires occurred at a shopping center in Littleton, where responders found multiple charging stations engulfed in flames and heavy smoke.
The Littleton Police Department and local fire departments launched an investigation after the incident, which they believe was “suspicious in nature.” No injuries were reported, but authorities have urged anyone with information to come forward under the Arson Watch Reward Program, offering up to $5,000 for tips that solve or prevent arson crimes.
The incident comes amid a wave of protests against Elon Musk and Tesla, including a separate incident in Colorado where a woman was arrested after police found explosives at a Tesla dealership. The investigation into the Massachusetts fires is ongoing.
