Teslas around the country have been subjected to vandalism by anti-Elon Musk activists. Musk is heading up the Department of Government Efficiency and working closely with President Donald Trump to eliminate government waste.
Recently, a woman caught a man vandalizing her Tesla Cybertruck outside Omni Mountain Resort & Spa in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire.
The incident was filmed on the vehicle’s Sentry Mode video, and the vehicle’s owner, Kerry Pouliot, quickly called police. The man was questioned by police at the scene, who say the incident is under investigation.

At least one Tesla owner is fighting back.
A Dallas man whose Tesla Model X was vandalized in the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport parking lot sued the man police allege is responsible for damaging his vehicle. Rafael Hernandez was arrested March 22 on a criminal mischief charge by the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office after he was recorded on Sentry Mode.

The unnamed victim told Fox News Digital that he is suing Hernandez for more than $1 million.
He said the accused man’s “motives were wrong, and [Hernandez’s] acts were intentional — it is for a judge and jury to decide, based on the facts, what his punishment should be. I believe strongly that I was targeted because my car is a Tesla.”
Four people have been charged at the federal level stemming from firebombings of Tesla facilities and charging stations around the country.

PITTSBURGH (WKBN) – Morgan Wallen has canceled his concert that was set to happen Saturday night in Pittsburgh.
According to Ticketmaster, Wallen canceled the show at Acrisure Stadium for Saturday, June 6.
Wallen wrote on his Instragram account that the show was canceled due to the threat of severe weather.
Ticketmaster says if you bought a ticket, you don’t have to do anything — they will issue you a refund to your original method of payment and the money should appear on your account within 14-21 days.
If tickets were transferred to you, the refund will go to the fan who originally purchased the tickets from Ticketmaster.
The show was part of Wallen’s “Still the Problem” tour.
Two people have been arrested in connection to a shooting at an event hall in Waterbury last weekend.
Officers received information about a shooting at So Blu’Niq on Wolcott Street on Sunday around 5 a.m. It was also reported that a victim from the incident had admitted themselves to the hospital for treatment of gunshot wounds.
Police said they made contact with the 27-year-old victim at the hospital. According to investigators, she had a gunshot wound to her abdomen and her arm. She is reportedly still admitted and receiving treatment, but is considered to be in stable condition.
Investigators responded to So Blu’Niq and found a crime scene. Authorities said they determined there was an isolated disturbance that happened inside the business that escalated to a firearm being discharged and the woman being hit by a projectile.
While investigating, authorities said they also determined that at the time of the incident, liquor and alcoholic beverages were illegally being sold without a permit or license.
Warrants were secured for a 50-year-old woman from Waterbury and a 29-year-old man from Waterbury.
The woman was taken into custody on Friday and is being charged with illegal sale of alcohol. She is set to appear in court on June 10.
The man was taken into custody on Wednesday and is facing charges including assault, criminal possession of a firearm, criminal possession of a pistol/revolver by a convicted felon, illegal discharge of a firearm, reckless endangerment and carrying a pistol without a permit. He appeared in court on Thursday on a $1.5 millon bond.

A man was shot by police Friday after grabbing a sword and swinging it at officers during a traffic stop, according to the Calais Police Department.
Calais Police Officer Charles Ball and Washington County Sheriff’s Deputy Taylor Leblanc stopped Abinadi White, 35, at the intersection of Main and North streets, according to a press release.
When White was told he was under arrest, he reportedly refused to comply. Officers tried to use a Taser but were unsuccessful, and when they tried to physically take him into custody he grabbed a sword and swung it at them. Both officers fired their weapons.
White was taken to Calais Regional Hospital and later airlifted to Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor, where he was stabilized.
Both officers have been placed on administrative leave, which is standard procedure when deadly force is used. The Maine Attorney General’s Office will investigate the use of deadly force.
White faces charges including criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon, failure to submit to arrest and operating after suspension, police said.
