Social Media Suspected Durte Dom Involvement
Along with the tweet, the LAPD included that they were looking for more information regarding the case, and were ready to provide a $1,000 reward to anyone with information. Many in the community suspected the involvement of Durte Dom due to his social media posts regarding the situation where he claimed responsibility. Additionally, at one point the LAPD called Durte Dom a person of interest due to the public voicing their theory. However as Dom’s posts started to take off, a person who witnessed the jump revealed that Dom was allegedly lying.
Alex Choi took to his Instagram sharing a story that sheds more light into the Dom situation. On Instagram, Choi’s post states: “Durte Dom did not jump the Tesla. Not sure why he’s lying to everyone and saying he did. I was there. I saw everything, and he wasn’t even there”
Eventually after receiving loads of tips regarding Durte Dom, the LAPD shared via Twitter that they were no asking for tips regarding him, as they have reached out to his social media accounts. They however are still asking to public to come forward if they witnessed the events. Additionally, as of now it is unclear if Dom is still considered a person of interest. However, Dom’s social media posts have since been removed. According to a statement provided to NBC News, a TikTok spokesperson pointed out the video violated the platforms community guidelines

Lastly, with Dom possibly lying about the jump, the identity of who is actually responsible for the Tesla Jump is now in question. The #DramaAlert news team will update this article if any new information arrises.
