A transgender activist has been arrested for allegedly leaving explosives at a Colorado Tesla dealership.
The activist, “Lucy Grace Nelson,” whose birth name appears to be Justin Thomas Nelson, 40, has been accused of repeatedly vandalizing the dealership in “protest” of Elon Musk.
The dealership had been targeted on January 29, February 2, and February 7 — with the severity increasing each time.
Nelson was caught red-handed at the dealership with incendiary devices and materials to vandalize the building, again, on February 24.
In a press release about the arrest, the Loveland Police Department wrote:
“On Monday, February 24th, 2025, just before midnight, the Loveland Police Department arrested 40-year-old Lucy Grace Nelson. The arrest was based on probable cause obtained through an extensive investigation which started on January 29th. This arrest comes after the Loveland Tesla dealership was vandalized several times, with incendiary devices discovered on the scene. On Monday evening, Nelson returned to Loveland Tesla while in possession of additional incendiary devices, along with materials attributed to vandalism. Detectives apprehended Nelson prior to further damage occurring.”
The department added, “Magistrate Sage has issued a $100,000 cash surety bond.”
Fox News referred to Nelson as a woman in their reporting, running the headline from Alexandra Koch, “Woman arrested after explosives discovered at Tesla dealership.”
Koch repeatedly used female pronouns to refer to him throughout her report.
Naturally, the article was widely mocked on social media.
