Mohamed Sabry Soliman is in federal custody after the 45-year-old allegedly attacked Jews who were marching in Boulder, Colo. on behalf of the hostages in Gaza, with a “makeshift flame thrower” and threw an “incendiary device” at them.
Witnesses said that the attacker said, “Free Palestine,” Mark Michalek, special agent in charge of the FBI Denver field office, told a press conference on Sunday.
Four women and four men between 52 and 88 years old were transported to hospitals, Boulder police said. Authorities had earlier put the count of the injured at six
“It is clear that this is a targeted act of violence, and the FBI is investigating this as an act of terrorism,” Michalek said. “Sadly, attacks like this are becoming too common across the country.”
Steven Redfearn, the Boulder police chief, told reporters hours earlier that it would be “irresponsible” to speculate on motive, though he said he was aware that the FBI was probing an alleged hate crime.
