Tesla says it has fired an employee for doing damage to the Tesla plant in California in an act of sabotage.
Tesla says the electric car factory in Fremont, California had to stop production for several hours because of the sabotage of an employee, who then was caught and tries to cover his tracks by blaming another worker and destroying a computer. The sabotage occurred 2 weeks ago. Tesla has had employee sabotage before, and put together a hi-profile internal security operation. Tesla says it was the target of a Russian cyber-attack last month, and also moved against a disgruntled former employee who it said was going to shoot up the factory. Police investigated. Nothing happened.
