Multiple Bombs Found Inside Tesla Showroom in Texas

Multiple incendiary devices were found inside a Tesla showroom in Austin, Texas, on Monday morning as nationwide threats against CEO Elon Musk continue.

Austin Police Department officers were called to the electric vehicle showroom just after 8am after an anonymous caller reported that there were bombs placed inside the building.

Authorities rushed to the scene and located multiple 'suspicious devices' at the Tesla dealership. The Austin Police Department Bomb Squad were also called to help.

The incendiary devices - which are designed to cause large-scale, explosive violence - were taken into police custody without incident, the department said.

It is unclear who planted the devices and when they did so. No arrests have been made. DailyMail.com contacted the Austin Police Department for more information.

Police are currently investigating the incident, which comes after a disturbing number of Telsas have been vandalized, burned, and targeted in attacks in recent weeks.

Trump, who bought his own Cybertruck earlier this month, declared the ongoing violence against Tesla as 'domestic terrorism' - however the warning has not deterred those attempting to cause havoc for Elon's company.

It's believed that the electric cars have been targeted due to Musk's role in President Donald Trump's administration.

Musk is leading the Department of Government Efficiency, and has wasted no time slashing federal spending and government employees across the country.

The CEO spoke out about an alleged conspiracy to assassinate him and destroy Tesla, the electric car company that has made him the richest man in the world.

Speaking on Fox News, Musk told Sean Hannity that his attempts to cut government waste and fraud is the reason why certain characters 'want to kill me.'

'It turns out when you take away people's, you know, the money that they're receiving fraudulently, they get very upset,' he said.

'And they basically want kill me because I'm stopping their fraud and they want to hurt Tesla because we're stopping the terrible waste and corruption in the government. And, well, I guess they're bad people. Bad people do bad things.'

Musk repeated the claim made by many conservative lawmakers, including Marjorie Taylor Greene, that there could be left-wing groups coordinating the protests and attacks on Tesla vehicles and dealerships.

'I think there are larger forces at work as well,' Musk said. 'I mean, who's funding and who's coordinating it? Because this is crazy. I've never seen anything like this.

'Tesla is a peaceful company, we've never done anything harmful. I've never done anything harmful, I've only done productive things, so I think we just have a deranged... I think there's some kind of mental illness going on here,' he added.

Large demonstrations have been staged at Tesla dealerships all over the country and in some more extreme incidents, Tesla vehicles owned by innocent people have been set on fire.

One recent example was when an arsonist used Molotov cocktails to fire bomb five Teslas before firing rounds into the burning vehicles at a dealership in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Last week, roughly 250 activists gathered outside a showroom in New York City, holding anti-Musk placards that read 'Block Fascism Now and 'Musk Must Go' as they shouted 'Elon Musk is not elected! Democracy must be protected!'

The chaos and anger directed at Musk and Tesla have swelled to the point that Trump came out and declared it domestic terrorism.

'They're harming a great American company,' Trump said at the White House, referring to the demonstrators. 'Let me tell you, you do it to Tesla, and you do it to any company, we're going to catch you, and... you're going to go through hell.'

Attorney General Pam Bondi appears to be following through on Trump's promise, also calling the attacks on Tesla property 'domestic terrorism' in a statement Tuesday evening.

'The Department of Justice has already charged several perpetrators with that in mind, including in cases that involve charges with five-year mandatory minimum sentences,' Bondi said.

'We will continue investigations that impose severe consequences on those involved in these attacks, including those operating behind the scenes to coordinate and fund these crimes.'

Musk has seen his wealth shrink by $130 billion since January 1, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires' Index.

So far, three people have been charged with separate attacks on Tesla facilities across the country, and Bondi warned that arsonists will be put behind bars.

The first of the alleged attackers to face charges was named as Adam Matthew Lansky, 41, who is accused of throwing Molotov cocktails at a Tesla dealership in Salem, Oregon on January 20.

Lanksy allegedly threw a 'large heavy object through the dealership window', and was armed with a suppressed AR-15 at the time, reports Fox News.

A week after the Oregon firebombing, Lucy Grace Nelson, also known as Justin Thomas Nelson, 42, was taken into custody in Loveland, Colorado on January 29 after allegedly being caught attempting to light Molotov cocktails near a dealership.

Prosecutors said Nelson was found to have been in possession of a container of gasoline, bottles and wicks, which were allegedly intended to be used to create incendiary weapons.

On March 7, Daniel Clarke-Pounder, 24, allegedly vandalized a dealership in Charleston, South Carolina, by spray-painting messages reading 'f*** Trump' and 'Long Live Ukraine' before lighting three charging stations on fire.

Lanksy and Nelson are charged with arson of property in interstate commerce and possession of unregistered destructive device, while Clarke-Pounder was charged with arson of property in interstate commerce.

All three suspects face up to 20 years in prison if convicted, the DOJ said.
