*Residents of Corvallis, Oregon, are being asked to keep an eye out for battery cells ejected from a [Tesla Model 3]('https://www.autoblog.com/tesla/model+3/') that veered off the road at over 100 mph. Some of the cells catapulted from the high-voltage battery pack have already been found, including one that smashed through a window, landed on a bed, and started a fire.
One battery ended its flight on a person's lap.
Police officers [explained]('https://www.facebook.com/CorvallisPoliceDepartment/posts/1980910832052126') the crash happened on November 17, 2020, at about 10:18 p.m. Investigators say the driver lost control of the [Model 3]('https://www.autoblog.com/tesla/model+3/') and broke — somewhat ironically — a power pole, knocked over two trees, and struck a telephone junction box before coming to a stop. He left a 300-foot-plus streak of damage and debris.
One of the 3's tires struck the second story of an apartment complex with enough force to break the water pipes embedded in the wall. One apartment's bathroom was destroyed, according to the Corvallis Police Department, and another was flooded. While that's hardly unusual in a high-speed accident, law enforcement officers added that the punctured battery pack scattered cylindrical cells like confetti as the car ricocheted off of the various obstacles in its path.*
