Rescuer Musk apologizes to the children trapped in the cave in Thailand

Elon Musk owner of Tesla apologized on Wednesday for saying that a British diver involved in rescuing young trapped in a cave in Thailand was a pedophile, admitting that he did in the middle of an outburst of fury.

Diver Vern Unsworth gave a television interview of a mini-minimizing underwater musk company designed to help the rescue. The submarine, which has never been used, did not serve the way and the presentation "was a PR maneuver," he said.

In response, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX said on Twitter that Unsworth was a pedophile.

"My words were pronounced in a bout of rage after Mr. Unsworth said several falsities …" Musk tweeted.

"In any case, their actions against me do not justify my actions against him, and therefore I apologize to Mr. Unsworth and the companies I represent and lead. Whoever is to blame here me, that me. "

Musk's initial tweet, which was later wiped out, chase investments in Tesla lost nearly 3 percent on Monday, but rose 4.1 percent on Tuesday.

This Wednesday, at 10:35 am Mexico City, shares recorded a decline of 0.68 percent with a price of $ 320.4.

A few days ago Unsworth CNN declared that he was considering filing a lawsuit. He did not respond to requests for Associated Press comments.

In his most recent tweets, Musc says the Midget "was designed as a work of generosity and the following specifications as rescue team leader. "

Musk has 22.3 million followers and activity on the networks has sometimes benefited Tesla. The company has told financial regulators that do not feel the need for advertising because it has a lot of media attention.

But these latest personal insults have won the refusal of the company's attention at a time when it is extremely difficult to get the debt through and for profit.
