Tesla car owner Draper Younce says his Tesla is a big reason why he survived an attempted car hijacking.
Firefighters responded Thursday night at Fremes, California, in Tesla, where smoke could be seen from an open roof on the north side of the plant.
Around 4:45 p.m., local authorities suspected the fire had burned itself out, but firefighters were at the scene and were monitoring the situation.
A spokesman for the Fremont Fire Department told Klanding subsidiary KTVU Fox 2 to Oakland Fox that the fire may have broken out in an area of the facility that is currently under construction.

Authorities said there were no injuries and that all factory workers were being held accountable.
This is the same facility where fires have already broken out before, also in 2019 and 2018.
