Brooklyn woman arrested, allegedly left brick with swastika on Tesla Cybertruck in Jewish NYC nabe: NYPD

A Brooklyn woman was arrested on hate crime charges for allegedly leaving a brick scrawled with a swastika and the word “Nazi” on a parked Tesla in a Jewish enclave this week.

Natasha Cohen was accused of writing the hateful symbol in chalk on the brick, and leaving it on the bumper of a Cybertruck parked in front of a yeshiva on Ditmas Avenue near Ocean Parkway in Kensington just after 8 p.m. Monday, according to police and photos. 

The car’s 38-year-old owner called 911 when he spotted the brick, as well as a full, black trash bag and other garbage that the suspect had dumped on the vehicle, police said. 

In a video released by the NYPD, a woman in a pink hooded jacket, blue jeans and black rainboots can be seen throwing items on the silver Cybertruck before taking off on a scooter. 

Detectives from NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force nabbed Cohen, 46 – who lives in an apartment just around the block from where the vehicle was vandalized – just before 3 p.m. Thursday, and slapped her with charges of aggravated harassment and criminal mischief as hate crimes. 

Her arraignment in Brooklyn Criminal Court was pending Saturday. 

Cohen’s alleged crimes are the latest in a spate of attacks targeting Tesla owners and dealerships across the country, in protest of CEO Elon Musk’s controversial role as head of the Department of Government Efficiency within the Trump Administration. 

On March 27, two vandals were caught on video brazenly carving a swastika and the word “Nazis” on the side of a Cybertruck parked on Monroe Street in Bed-Stuy. 

The vehicle’s camera captured one of the suspects crouching down to etch the fate-filled messages onto the car as his accomplice calmly stood by, cops said. 

No arrests have been made in that incident.
