The crowd reached the gate of the facility but didn’t obtain interior access, according to The Telegraph.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk rebuffed claims that the protestors had stormed the factory itself.
“This is fake news,” he said in a post on his X social media platform.
“Protesters did not manage to break through the fenceline,” Musk said. “There are still 2 intact fence lines all around.
“Note, this is ‘National Protest Week’ in Germany, so there are a lot of protests for many different reasons.”

Several arrests were made in connection to the incident, The Telegraph reported. It said paramedics had treated injured protesters and police officers.
Tesla staff assigned to the factory were told to work from home Friday.

The factory has been the target of criminal action before.
An act of arson cut power to the facility in March, with German prosecutors investigating the possibility of terrorism in the incident, according to The Associated Press.
Musk said of the protesters Friday, “These are either the dumbest eco-terrorists on Earth or they’re puppets of those who don’t have good environmental goals.”
He cited Tesla’s production of electric vehicles, rather than those powered by fossil fuels, in questioning the motives of those responsible.
These are either the dumbest eco-terrorists on Earth or they’re puppets of those who don’t have good environmental goals.
Stopping production of electric vehicles, rather than fossil fuel vehicles, ist extrem dumm.
