I don't think that's correct - the motors are mounted on the front and rear axles - the battery is a flat panel mounted on the bottom of the frame.

So the rear motor would be directly under the bed. The battery is under the passenger compartment.

But you're right, there's more information. Apparently the driver shot himself after parking, which makes it seem like the incident was intentional.
