An influencer’s brand new Tesla was torched in a suspected arson attack at her luxury Hunter’s Hill property.
The fire also destroyed a Lamborghini Huracan worth $380,000.
Taylor Jayne “TJ” Touma lives at the stunning four bedroom home, which overlooks the picturesque Tarban Creek, with her boyfriend.
At the time of the attack another man, Billy Blazevski, 25, was staying with them.
The Daily Telegraph reported that one resident saw several dark figures running from the scene.
Police said CCTV had shown men wearing black gloves and balaclavas, indicating that the fire had been a targeted attack.
They added that they believed an explosive similar to a molotov cocktail had been used in the attack.
Detectives are investigating why Mr Blazevski had been targeted a second time, after another arson attack at a home linked to him happened in St Johns Park in October.
Ms Touma is followed by 57,000 people and attracts followers by posting about her business ventures and luxury items.
When contacted by media, Ms Touma said she “didn’t want to talk about the fire”.
“Three aerial platforms supported fire crews in breathing apparatus as they attacked the seat of the blaze and prevented it spreading to an adjacent hammer mill,” a NSW Fire and Rescue spokesman said.
“The cause of the fire is being determined.”
The fire badly damaged the garage of Ms Touma’s home but firefighters managed to put out the blaze in 30 minutes, preventing it from spreading to other parts of the house.
There is no suggestion of any wrongdoing by Mr Blazevski or Ms Touma.
