After a chase Slotdown La Brea Avenue and onto I-10 at 100 mph, in West Hollywood where he hit one at an intersection before hitting two other vehicles. It was sliced in two after it hit a light pole, with the back end hitting the entrance to a Jewish synagogue, and shattered batteries sparking like fireworks. The back half flew into the into the front entrance of the shul destroying a metal gate and front door (2) The driver who was driving as if he were on some kind of a suicide mission was ejected through the windshield but survived only to die in the hospital (3). No one suspected a terrorist motive which would be common had the attack occurred in Israel.
Same day Another Model S rear-ended a Toyota Corolla in Palmdale, Calif., killing the Toyota's driver and two child passengers. (1) Tesla shares were down after a weekend with two major crashes, one fatal of an involved vehicle.

Two unconnected crashes of Tesla in the same metro area on America's Independence day sounds like something a James Bond scriptwriter or the old KGB would dream up. But of course, these are both unintentional unfortunate accidents. Who on earth would send a guy to steal a Tesla and deliberately drive it on a mission of destruction and split it in half like the Porsche Paul Walker was in? There is no organization or state on earth with the capability or motive to do that.

The crash is currently under investigation.
*UPDATE: Driver of Model S reported to be deceased at the scene after being launched through Model S windscreen.
UPDATE 2: InsideEVs has received word that one of the persons in the Honda Civic that was struck was critically injured, and that at least one person inside the stolen Tesla Model S who was reported to have died at the scene, has been revived by paramedics before taking him to hospital with critical injuries. His current status is unknown.
Update 3: Pursuit suspect (only 1 occupant confirmed in Model S) is in critical condition, but has pulled through.
This accident comes just a month after Elon Musk stated there had been no serious injuries or fatalities in a Model S after 344 million miles of driving, a fact he stated was “…certainly one of our proudest accomplishments“.
According to one report, police stopped chase after they themselves got into an accident, the suspect kept on driving another 5-7 miles until he crashed.
Reportedly the MS was an "owned car" that was being worked on in a Tesla Service Center.
This scenario is somewhat kindred to handing your keys for Valet Parking.
