Quick Summary:

Attacks on property carrying the logo of Elon Musk's electric-car company are cropping up across the U.S.and overseas.

While no injuries have been reported, Tesla showrooms, vehicle lots, charging stations and privately owned cars have been targeted.

In Las Vegas, several Tesla vehicles were set ablaze early Tuesday outside a Tesla service center where the word “resist” was also painted in red across the building’s front doors.
