One new Tesla Supercharger with 12 stalls was set to open soon in Surrey, British Columbia but now vandals have damaged a third of them before the station was even completed. Work on this particular station began in October of last year and it was pretty much done - all it apparently needed was the power to be turned on.
According to Drive Tesla Canada, the person or people responsible for this didn’t do the act out of spite or hatred for the brand, but probably to extract the copper from the thick charging cables and then sell it. Copper theft is nothing new and thieves know very well that they can earn a lot if they take this metal in to be recycled.
