The detonators, designed to cause mass destruction, were removed without incident, and the entire operation was conducted with strict control. Although no arrests have been made, authorities are not yet revealing details about who is responsible for this crime. The investigation is ongoing, and law enforcement is working to identify the individual or group behind this act of violence.

This incident occurs amid a growing number of attacks on Tesla, including cases of vandalism against electric vehicles and arson. Threats against Elon Musk, the company's CEO, have become increasingly common.

Musk, who has been combating government waste and corruption for years, noted in an interview with Fox News that he is being targeted because of his efforts to reform the federal administration.

"It turns out when you take away people's money they’re receiving fraudulently they get very upset," Musk explained, justifying why he believes some are trying to destroy him. According to the "Daily Mail," Musk suggested that the attacks on Tesla might be coordinated by left-wing groups, an opinion shared by many conservative politicians.
