At least six people received burn injuries in a "targeted act of violence" at Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado, on Sunday, June 1. The incident occurred when a suspect used a makeshift flamethrower and threw Molotov cocktails at pro-Israel protestors during the protest in support of hostages, said an FBI official. The attack took place at around 1.30 pm (local time), and three blocks of Pearl Street were evacuated, and the public was closed until 6 pm. The suspect, who was identified as Mohammed Sabry Soliman (45), was arrested immediately, CBS News reported, quoting a special FBI agent, Mike Michalek, who said, was staying in the United States illegally. Before the attack, he chanted 'free Palestine' according to Michalek, who stated that this was a 'clear this is a targeted act of violence' and it is being investigated as an act of terrorism. A senior US official stated to the RAWSALERTS (an X handle) he is an Egyptian national who entered the U.S. on a B-2 tourist visa during the Biden administration and never returned home. A video him shouting at pro-Israeli protestors went viral on social media. He can be seen holding Molotov cocktail-like bottles in his hand.
