Four Tesla Cybertrucks Burst Into Flames in Seattle

An investigation was launched after four Tesla Cybertrucks caught fire on Sunday, March 9, in Seattle's SoDo neighborhood. The Seattle Fire Department told Storyful it responded to a car fire call at 11:13 pm. "Crews extinguished a fire involving four electric vehicles," PIO David Cuerpo said. "Then moved the involved vehicles away from anything else that can catch fire. No buildings were involved in the fire, and no injuries were reported." The department's Energy Response team also responded to the scene to reduce fire hazards from the damaged vehicles' lithium-ion batteries, Cuerpo said. Footage from @_choeshow shows fire crews working on extinguishing one of the vehicles on fire and moving the damaged Cybertrucks. In the video, a firefighter is heard saying an investigator was on the way, in response to whether the incident looked like arson. Seattle Police and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) were investigating the incident. (Footage by @_choeshow/Storyful via Getty Images UGC)
