The Federal Bureau of Investigation said it was looking into an incident that left a Tesla Supercharger station damaged in a city in Washington in the wee hours of Tuesday.
Electrek first reported the incident, saying an "explosion" led to a temporary shutdown of the charging station.
The police department in Lacey, where the incident occurred, said in a Facebook post: "This morning at 1:34, officers were dispatched to a malicious mischief after receiving multiple calls reporting a loud noise in the Sleater Kinney area."
The vandalized Tesla Supercharger station, located at 665 Sleater Kinney Road SE in Lacey, comprises 12 Superchargers, each capable of delivering up to 250 kW of power, according to the company's website.
Tesla said on its Charging X page that it was coordinating with Washington's energy utility company Puget Sound Energy to bring back the Superchargers online.
