An employee of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was reportedly busted for allegedly causing approximately $20,000 in damage while vandalizing Teslas — just weeks after his failed vice presidential candidate boss mocked the electric car company’s falling stock.
Dylan Bryan Adams, 33, a fiscal policy analyst for the state run by the failed vice presidential candidate, was arrested after he was caught on vehicle surveillance dragging his keys across several Teslas, causing approximately $20,000 worth of damage as he stripped the paint off the electric cars, according to a Minnesota-based crime watch account.
Formal charges are reportedly pending.
Walz did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
In an apparent protest of CEO Elon Musk’s work leading President Trump’s cost-cutting Department of Environmental Efficiency (DOGE), Tesla cars, dealerships and charging stations have been targeted across the country in recent weeks by vandals and arsonists.
“I think a great wrong is being done to the people of Tesla and to our customers,” the DOGE chief told Fox News “Special Report” host Bret Baier last month.
“I mean, Tesla’s a peaceful company that has made great cars, great products — that’s all it’s done,” the 53-year-old argued.
