The cause of a fire at a Tesla dealer in Rome early on Monday remained under investigations, firefighters told BI.

Summary

A fire at a Tesla dealership in Rome’s Torre Angela district early Monday destroyed 17 cars and damaged the building. No injuries were reported, but investigators are exploring multiple causes, including arson.

The incident follows recent Tesla vandalism in Rome amid rising backlash against Elon Musk’s leadership and cost-cutting at DOGE.

Tesla has faced arson, protests, and boycott calls across the US and Europe.

The company’s stock fell 5% Monday, down 34% this year, with sales dropping sharply in both the US and Europe.

    That’s why it was so shocking when a judge recently compared them to Nazis, and even implied that the Mazis were kinder! Unfortunately, many MAGA Trairors woumd be proud of that.

    Also, I have NEVER heard a news personality call any of them Traitors, despite an Insurrection, the False Electors Plot, hundreds of stolen classified documents, turning against our allies, smooching the world’s worst authorities, etc.

    By any objective measure, Agent Krasnov is the most prolific traitor in American history, more than all other American traitors COMBINED.

    And yet not one talking news head has ever called him a Traitor.
