Tesla Supercharger Vandalized With Nazi Graffiti, Drivers Targeted In Massachusetts

The incident follows an attempted arson at a Tesla store in Colorado and threats of vandalism in California

Police in Massachusetts are investigating after swastikas and “hateful graffiti” were found near a Tesla Supercharger station. The Tyngsborough Police Department was called to the scene on February 11 and found the offensive content written on the ground in chalk.

As part of their investigation, officers discovered two swastikas as well as several phrases including “normalize hate.” Police don’t believe the incident was caught on security cameras and they weren’t able to locate any witnesses at the scene. However, they were able to wash the chalk off with hot water.

In a statement, Tyngsborough Police Chief Shaun Woods said they believe this was an isolated incident as there haven’t been any similar reports in the community. He added, “Acts of this nature are extremely rare in our community, and we take them seriously.” He went on to encourage anyone with information to come forward as his department will be conducting a thorough investigation.

While there’s no word on a motive, Nazi-themed incidents against Tesla have been a common occurrence ever since Elon Musk gave a questionable salute last month. A Tesla store in Loveland, Colorado has been targeted on at least three different occasions and the latest incident saw an arson attempt, several vehicles being spray painted, and “Nazi Cars” graffiti. A so-called anti-Nazi group has also reportedly threatened to start damaging Tesla vehicles in California.

Tesla owners are increasingly feeling the pressure and some have expressed fears about being the victim of a hate crime. That continues today as Dr. Kumait Jaroje told several Massachusetts news outlets that he’s being targeted because of his gold Cybertruck.

Someone allegedly put a “profane sticker” on the vehicle earlier this month and he was reportedly threatened after posting a picture of the truck online. He went on to tell CBS News Boston he’s been flipped off and cut off. Jaroje added, he’s “anxious and nervous about our safety and my kids’ safety.”

The messages, according to footage from the scene, included “Normalize hate” and a reference to goose stepping — the high-legged military marching style commonly associated with Nazi soldiers. https://t.co/4NKiNhLOU9
