Cox initially gave a false name, police said. Once he was identified, he was taken into custody. Police said after he was arrested, they received another report of a damaged Tesla. Cox was charged with one count of felony criminal mischief and failure to identify. An investigation is ongoing to figure out if he was responsible for the additional incidents of damage.
