Who is Mohamed Soliman? Suspect Identified in Boulder 'Terrorist Attack'
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) identified Mohamed Sabry Soliman as the man responsible for the attack in Boulder, Colorado on Sunday afternoon, local time.
Six victims, aged 67 to 88, were transported to local hospitals after Soliman used a "makeshift flamethrower" and hurled "an incendiary device" into the crowd. He was heard shouting "Free Palestine" during the attack, the special agent in charge told reporters.
Solimon had attacked the American Jewish group Run for Their Lives, organizes events while calling for the immediate release of the hostages held by Hamas, according to their website.
Several people were injured in the attack, with the extent of injuries unconfirmed but ranging from minor to more severe, according to local law enforcement. The suspect was injured as well.
