Updated with video from reporters on-site at the bottom of the post! Late Sunday night, four Tesla Cybertrucks caught fire in a Seattle holding lot near 2nd Ave S & S Spokane St, just five minutes from the local Tesla dealership. Initially, reports indicated two burning Cybertrucks, but as the fire spread, the number grew to 4 Cybertrucks. Investigators have offered no details as to whether this was arson or another case of a Tesla Cybertruck bursting into flames spontaneously. See video from the scene in the full article.

    The main ones that stood out to me were putting flammable liquid near the battery (“Why is there gasoline on this electric vehicle motor/battery? Hmmmm…” isn’t going to hold up to a fire marshall investigation, or whoever is investigating) and researching the crime after the fact, which has helped get people caught in the past.
