A group of Tesla Superchargers in a small town outside Boston caught fire this week — and investigators suspect it was arson.
Massachusetts police are working with local officials to investigate seven Tesla charging stations that were engulfed in flames early Monday morning. Littleton Police said in a Monday press release that local officials have "determined that the fire appears to have been intentionally set."
Seven charging stations that were damaged are the only ones in the town, and none of them are useable. However, he said they are actively being repaired.
Officers were dispatched to The Point Shopping Center at 1:10 a.m., following reports of fires at the Tesla charging station.
The officers said that "several Tesla charging stations were engulfed in flames and heavy, dark smoke" and another caught fire while they waited for the Electric Light & Water Department to arrive to shut down the power. Seven charging stations suffered heavy fire-related damage.
There were no reported injuries, and all of the fires were extinguished.
