Entitled Tesla Owner Parks on Stranger's Lawn, Steals Electricity for 12 Hours

As TV station WPBF reports, the stranger in question was homeowner Phil Fraumeni, who lives in a tidy house in Lake Worth, Florida. Last Friday morning Fraumeni’s lawn care guy knocked on his door, asking him to move his car. He was confused, as his car was in his driveway.

He soon found that the lawn care guy was talking about the white Tesla Model 3, which was parked on his lawn and the sidewalk, tethered to his house via an electrical cord plugged into an outside 120V outlet on his house.

Fraumeni didn’t know who owned the car, and, in a remarkable display of kindness and patience, didn’t immediately yank the plug from his house, urinate on some tires, and call a tow truck.

Fraumeni waited a few hours before calling police, who determined the car wasn’t stolen, and found the owner’s name. Around noon, the owners, a man and a woman, returned and the car, according to neighbor reports, had been there since at least the previous midnight, leaving the total charging time at about 12 hours.
