Tesla Supercharger station’s charging cables were stolen!
According to the images that emerged recently, an unknown person attacked Tesla’s newly established Oakhurst Supercharger station in California, USA. The person came near the Tesla Supercharger chargers and cut the wires. After that, a band played the cut wires.

Many Tesla owners and fans were delighted with the opening of the charging station.
