ICYMI: The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) arrested a 36-year old man on Wednesday, March 26, for an arson attack at a Tesla Collision Center in Las Vegas on March 18.
This video, released by LVMPD to Storyful, shows a person, dressed in black, setting a Tesla on fire and spray painting the word “resist” on the doors of the Tesla Collision Center at 6260 Badura Ave at 2:45 am on March 18.
Paul Kim, 36, was arrested Wednesday and charged with multiple state felonies, including three counts of arson, three counts of possession of an explosive device, five counts of shooting into a car and four counts of destroying personal property, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said.
Assistant Sheriff Dori Koren said detectives were able to see Kim fleeing the scene of the crime in a black Hyundai Elantra, which eventually helped the police identify and arrest the suspect.
“This case has been worked around the clock,” Koren told reporters on Thursday.
“Sheriff [Kevin] McMahill and FBI Special Agent in Charge Spencer Evans have made it a top priority for our organization and put a tremendous amount of workforce behind it.”
