DENVER (KDVR) — A man in the country illegally is facing federal and state charges after authorities allege he threw Molotov cocktails in a Sunday attack on a peaceful gathering of supporters of Israeli hostages in Gaza at Boulder's Pearl Street Mall.
The FBI called it a “targeted terror attack" and said Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, had been planning to attack a "Zionist group" for a year, according to the Associated Press. Officials said 12 people were injured.
