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 the 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.
