Vandals in Florida spray-paint fleet of Tesla Cybertrucks with ‘F--- Elon!’

Nearly three dozen Tesla Cybertrucks sitting in a parking lot in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, were vandalized last Friday with the phrase: “F--- Elon!"

Dozens of Tesla Cybertrucks sitting in a parking lot in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, were vandalized last Friday with the phrase: "F--- Elon!" 

Officers with the Fort Lauderdale Police Department (FLPD) responded to the parking lot at 1900 NE 9th Place around 8:38 a.m. Friday in reference to 34 vehicles. 

The parking lot owner told officers that he had left the vehicles in "good condition" the night before and when he returned, he found them vandalized with the expletive phrase. 

Tesla has been leasing the parking lot to store the vehicles, per reporting from local outlet WPLG. 

TESLA CYBERTRUCK OWNERS COMPLAINED OF RUSTING ON NEW TRUCKS

Adam Docktor, who works near the parking lot, told the station: "It was just one row and then it was a second row, and then a third row, and a fourth row." 

By Friday afternoon, the graffiti appeared to have been wiped off. 

FLPD said the investigation remains ongoing. Anyone with information about who is responsible is asked to contact FLPD. 

FOX Business reached out to Tesla for a response but did not hear back before publication.

The vandalization came days before Tesla issued two separate recalls on Cybertrucks due to issues potentially affecting their truck bed trims and front windshield wipers.
