Authorities are investigating a fire that destroyed over a dozen Tesla vehicles at a dealership near Rome Monday morning. Italian police are looking into “all avenues” and haven’t ruled out arson. Incendio in una concessionaria Tesla a Roma, danneggiate dalle fiamme 17 auto. Si indaga sulle cause. Possibile solo. Se fosse partito per autocombustione avrebbero bruciato solo un gruppo di macchine e invece è bruciato pure l’altro distante una decina di metri… Ci diranno… pic.twitter.com/nSXiJ8zMtu — ??ℝ??ℕ ?ℝ?? ? ✠ (@FantomasRitorna) March 31, 2025 Translated: Fire at a Tesla dealership in Rome, 17 cars damaged by flames. Investigation into the causes. Possible only. If it had started by spontaneous combustion, only one group of cars would have burned, but instead the other one, about ten meters away, burned too… They will tell us that it is a new type of self-combustion model rebound. A blaze at a Tesla dealership in Rome left 17 cars damaged, according to local fire services. https://t.co/4VhLKKHoRZ — Bloomberg (@business) March 31, 2025 Per CNN: The fire comes after a string of reports across Italy in recent weeks of Tesla vehicles being vandalized and defaced, with anti-Elon Musk and anti-Donald Trump sentiments written with spray paint. Another car dealership burned down in northern Rome a week ago, destroying 30 cars, including used Teslas. That fire was initially blamed on an electrical fault, but an investigation is underway. Also in Rome, several Teslas in the Garbatella neighborhood, where Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni grew up, were defaced, according to police and social media posts. Meloni and Musk are self-described close friends, but the Italian leader has not commented on the vandalism. Tesla dealerships in Milan have also been targeted by environmental groups in recent weeks. Reports of Tesla vandalism have also surfaced in France and various parts of the United States, including the Pacific Northwest and the Northeast. Tesla is a cherished member of our family. Attacks like we’ve seen today in Rome and recently in the U.S. are unacceptable. @X stands with @Tesla and against terrorism, violence and vandalism. Everyone should too! — Linda Yaccarino (@lindayaX) March 31, 2025 BREAKING: Fire at Tesla dealership near Rome destroys 17 cars Rome’s fire service said it was investigating “all avenues” while looking into how the fire started. pic.twitter.com/lwwHUWfDM7 — I Meme Therefore I Am (@ImMeme0) March 31, 2025 From Electrek: According to local news, the cause of the fire is still being investigated, and arson hasn’t been ruled out. As of late, arson has been at the top of everyone’s mind in the case of a fire at a Tesla location due to several extremist groups targeting the company. There have been several acts of vandalism against Tesla stores around the world, including burning vehicles. We previously reported on Tesla vehicles being set on fire at Tesla locations in Las Vegas and France. Last weekend, the ‘Tesla Takedown’ movement held its biggest demonstration with protests at over 200 locations. Most of those are legal, peaceful protests, but amid the broader movement to pressure Elon Musk through Tesla, some more radical groups have used vandalism.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis held a news conference Monday morning, calling on the State Legislature to approve property tax relief for homeowners. “Gov. Ron DeSantis officially proposes the Florida Legislature redirect the offered $5B sales tax relief to Floridian property tax relief,” Florida’s Voice noted. “We would end up with about $1,000 in property tax cut for every homesteaded Floridian. That would make a big, big difference,” DeSantis said. WATCH: #BREAKING: Gov.

He said, if approved, his proposal would result in approximately $1,000 in property tax cuts for every homesteaded Floridian. “Part of the reason we’re able to do this, although property taxes are local, there is a portion of that that is required local effort for state, for schools. We have a massive surplus. We can cover that through our normal budget reserves,” DeSantis said. According to DeSantis, the House of Representatives came up with a proposal to allocate $5 billion for tax relief, including reducing the state sales tax by three-quarters of a penny. However, while DeSantis applauded the legislators’ efforts to provide tax relief, he said the immediate need is for property taxes, which are not included in the proposal from the House of Representatives. “The issue with that is people want, [they] are not clamoring for sales tax, but they’re clamoring for property tax relief,” DeSantis said. “The one thing that we as Floridians through the political process can control is the tax. We can control that. We can go to the amendment, and we can do property taxes that way,” DeSantis said. “If people need relief, we’re in good fiscal shape: we have the ability to provide relief. We have a responsibility to get it done,” he added. WATCH: DESANTIS: "The one thing that we as Floridians through the political process can control is the tax. We can control that.

We live on a very fixed income, and property taxes take a big bite out of our budget. Like a lot of seniors here. Removing the property tax would help us a lot,” said homeowner Bill Hyde. DeSantis highlighted that some counties in Central Florida have significantly increased their budgets as a result of rising property taxes. However, he said these budgets should not expand to such a degree. DeSantis stated that he intends to collaborate with the Legislature to make budgets and contracts more transparent to the public, allowing residents to view these increases. He emphasized the goal of establishing constitutional protections to shield Florida residents from the rising burden of property taxes. DeSantis referred to property taxes as paying “rent” to the government and said it’s an “abnormality.” Watch the full press conference: Governor Ron DeSantis Proposes Eliminating Property Taxes https://t.co/JBC7lE9zmE — Ron DeSantis (@GovRonDeSantis) March 31, 2025
