[VIDEO] Wild-flying Tesla Stunt In Echo Park Ends In Hit-And-Run Crash

Police are searching for the driver of a Tesla who tried to pull off a dangerous high-speed stunt in an Echo Park, California, neighborhood late Sunday night that ended in a crash.

The failed maneuver that sent the Tesla airborne was caught in now-viral videos shot by spectators that are circulating on social media as well as by the Los Angeles Police Department on YouTube as part of an effort to apprehend the driver.

In the videos, the Tesla can be seen blowing through an intersection, where it then goes airborne, loses control, and crashes into two parked cars and a number of garbage cans.

The video sparked outrage on Twitter as users of the site expressed concern about the high-speed stunt.

Jordan Hook, who had his car damaged by the incident, told KABC, an ABC affiliate out of Los Angeles, “When I got out here everybody had left and there was just an abandoned Tesla still turned on, smashed into the back of my car.

“Neighbors immediately started showing me videos of several Teslas that came down the hill following the one that jumped and crashed and they piled out of that crash.”

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the vehicle that caused the crash was a rented 2018 Tesla Model S.

There was no description of the driver, who witnesses said got out of the vehicle and jumped into another car with men, who had been recording the stunt. They fled the scene of the accident, KABC reported.

The LAPD told KSWB, a FOX affiliate out of San Diego, that it received about 50 tips as to the identity of the driver and “over 90% of the tips are of the same person.”

The LAPD has issued a $1,000 reward for anyone who provides information leading to the “identification, apprehension and conviction, or resolution through a civil compromise.”

Information can be provided to the LAPD at 213-833-3713 or 1-877-527-3247. Anonymous calls can be made to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
