Boulder Community Comes Together For Vigil

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Members of the Boulder community are reeling from a firebombing attack that injured 12 people demonstrating for the release of Israeli hostages. Residents are preparing to come together for a vigil Wednesday evening to support those impacted. Authorities say Mohamed Sabry Soliman had 18 Molotov cocktails but threw just two during Sunday’s attack in which he yelled “Free Palestine.” Officials say he had planned to kill all of the roughly 20 participants in the demonstration. Soliman is an Egyptian national who has been living in the U.S. illegally. He faces federal hate crime and state attempted murder charges. Federal officials say his wife and five children have been taken into custody and could be quickly deported.
