Colorado Terror Attack Leaves Eight Injured, Suspect in U.S. Illegally

In a shocking incident on Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado, a man identified as Mohamed Sabry Soliman has been accused of launching a terror attack during a rally advocating for Israeli hostages. The attack, which involved a makeshift flamethrower and firebombs, resulted in significant injuries to eight victims, including a reported Holocaust survivor. Law enforcement officials stated that Soliman, who is Egyptian, was in the U.S. illegally after overstaying his visa and had previously applied for asylum. The FBI is classifying this as a targeted act of violence against the Jewish community, with political leaders condemning the assault as ‘horrifying’. The suspect has been charged with multiple felonies, including first-degree murder, and is being held on a substantial bond.
