The headquarters of Fisker Inc. now resemble a site abandoned just moments before a natural disaster, according to photos released by U.S. authorities.
Despite Fisker Inc.'s bankruptcy protection and multiple bankruptcies in locations across the Nordics, the brand continues to make headlines.
Most recently, American authorities revealed the mess left in the wake of the company's downfall.
Fisker Inc. relocated its headquarters a few miles down the street after closing its original one in California. The company vacated the premises in La Palma only when the lease expired on September 27 of this year—a mere few days ago.
However, the building now looks as if it had been hit by a bomb, following Fisker’s departure.

"We are facing high cleanup costs, damage repairs, and the removal of hazardous waste," said Tony Lenzini of Shamrock Properties II, the company that leased the premises to Fisker Inc., in a statement to TechCrunch.
The property management company has now filed a lawsuit against Fisker Inc. for the damage left behind by the crisis-hit car brand.
According to Shamrock, Fisker attempted to sell some of the items left in the office through an auction with Heritage Global Partners. However, what happened to those items afterward remains uncertain, leaving it unclear who owns what.
The landlord also claims that several individuals showed up at the property after Fisker Inc. officially vacated it. These individuals allegedly filled several cars with numerous items from the site.
"They threw trash everywhere, took tools, computers, car parts, and more, and then returned to load more," reads a comment to TechCrunch.
The problems haven’t stopped with former Fisker Inc. employees.
According to the landlord, in the past few days, unknown individuals have allegedly attempted to enter the buildings, possibly intending to use the premises without authorization.
