Officials make example of Tesla attack suspect with message about ‘self-righteous mob’

A Las Vegas man has been charged in the Molotov cocktail attack that torched several Teslas at a dealership last week.

Paul Hyon Kim, 36, was arrested Wednesday by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, after at least five cars were allegedly set on fire March 18 at a local Tesla Collision Center.

Kim has been charged with multiple crimes ranging from destruction of property, arson, and possessing a fire device, according to jail records.

He will also face federal charges, Spencer Evans, the FBI agent-in-charge of the bureau's Las Vegas office, told reporters at a Thursday news briefing.

"There's nothing courageous or noble about firebombing private property and terrorizing your local community," Evans said. "The self-righteous mob that's cheering you on today to commit acts of violence on their behalf will leave you high and dry and forget about you tomorrow. And at the end of the day, you and you alone will be held responsible and face the prospect of a lengthy prison sentence."

He’s a domestic terrorist. Will he end up in the El Salvador big house?

But he is a pro-Palestian communist?

“He does look kinda like a Jihadi Communist.”

That is why I was wondering about your post here.
