A pregnant woman who was a passenger in a Tesla has been seriously injured after being struck by a large rock in Vancouver.

Vancouver police said the vehicle was moving and travelling north on Nanaimo Street around 8:45 p.m. on Sunday.

"This very serious incident could easily have resulted in someone’s death, but for a few inches,” said Sgt. Steve Addison.

As the vehicle passed East 27th Avenue, a two-pound rock smashed through the windshield and struck the pregnant woman. The woman sustained a serious, but non-life-threatening injury, according to police.

The woman was struck by the rock in her upper body and she has a broken bone. The rock then fell on the floorboard of the vehicle.

“We are working to determine whether this was a criminal act, and if someone intentionally targeted this Tesla,” said Addison.

Police have not been able to confirm yet where the rock came from or what caused it to strike the vehicle.

Investigators are canvassing the neighbourhood for evidence.

Anyone with dash-camera footage or who saw what happened between 8:40 and 9 p.m. on March 30 is being asked to contact VPD at 604-717-4021.

Back on March 21, a 27-year-old man was caught vandalizing a Tesla dealership in Vancouver and was arrested by police.

Vancouver said at the time of the incident that there have been eight acts of mischief involving Tesla owner Elon Musk’s political affliction with the U.S. government since Jan. 1.
