After Hurricane Helene in Florida, a security camera footage shared by officials was released to warn electric vehicle owners. The footage shows a Tesla parked in a garage filled with saltwater catching fire.

The video shared by Pinellas County officials on Saturday shows that the fire started underneath the vehicle and engulfed the entire car in less than a minute. During the incident, the garage quickly filled with smoke.

Hurricane Helene affected not only Florida but also North Carolina and other Southeastern states. It is reported that at least 91 people lost their lives due to the storm, and this number may rise. Strong winds and heavy rainfall caused significant damage in the area.
