Car Got Stolen At Work. Is My Employer Liable?

My only mode of transportation was stolen from work last night. Conveniently, it was not caught on camera because it was stolen while my manager reset the security cameras (about a 10 minute time frame). Oddly enough, she reset the cameras an hour later than she usually does. There is a gate around my workplace with an alarm system that did not go off when the theft cut through it to enter the parking lot.

My managers are now blaming me for this incident and being hostile. Calling me to yell at me multiple times today. Even going so far as to make jokes about my car being stolen, then accusing me of threatening them for asking them to stop. I requested to take the day off tomorrow because I have no other transportation and I need to file an insurance claim. My boss told me that he does not care, that I need to take an Uber and he even insinuated that my performance with the company has been poor (despite complimenting my work just days ago). It seems that they are retaliating against me for this. Are they responsible for my car being stolen? And would it be wrongful termination for them to fire me over this incident?
