Flight Sergeant Third Class Ekkarat Sartsanasunthornchai, who was at the scene, told police that closed-circuit television footage showed a flash of white light at about 7.50am, believed to be an electrical short circuit, before the fire occured.
Firemen raced against time to battle the blaze, but flames engulfed the warehouse and spread to one of fire trucks, forcing crews to flee for safety as the inferno intensified.
Police said initial assessments revealed that … 45 Teslas worth another 90 million baht were destroyed, along with the fire truck.
Not many details are being released so far about this Tesla crash.
A two-car crash that police said they believe to have been caused by driving under the influence killed a 41-year-old Castro Valley woman on Saturday.
In a statement, police said they arrested a 27-year-old Pleasanton man on suspicion of DUI causing injury. The wreck on Crow Canyon Road happened about 3:25 p.m. and involved a Ford Bronco and a Tesla Model 3. Police said they arrested the driver of the Tesla.
The police report indicates a mother and her 26 year old son were fighting when he floored it on a curve and killed a woman.
He allegedly took a curve too fast, hit several trees, hit a median, and then went airborne before colliding with the driver’s side of a Porsche that was sitting at the light on Turtle Creek Boulevard. The impact flipped the Porsche, and the Tesla landed on top.
The driver of the Porsche, 29-year-old Emma Hackney, died in the crash. A passenger in the Porsche was critically injured, and so was Petty’s mom, who was with him in the Tesla.
According to the affidavit, Petty told officers he had crashed because his mom was trying to grab his phone, since he was driving with the phone in his hand.
Preston Petty is the 2025 Tesla owner’s full name, and police also charged him with intoxication while driving his mother. So he’s facing intoxication manslaughter and assault.
I love the analysis that just dropped from famous market analyst and investor Michael Bury.
…the Elon cult was all-in on electric cars until competition showed up, then all-in on autonomous driving until competition showed up, and now is all-in on robots – until competition shows up.
Competition reveals the fraud.
