Multiple people set on fire in attack during Colorado pro-Israeli march, police say
Multiple people set on fire in attack during Colorado pro-Israeli march, police say
A man reportedly set people on fire in Boulder, Colorado, leaving multiple individuals injured, the city’s police chief said, as people gathered for a ‘peaceful’ pro-Israeli demonstration.
A suspect is in custody and police are investigating what FBI officials immediately called “a targeted terror attack” — though the local authorities said it was too early to define the attack.
“When we arrived, we encountered multiple victims … with injuries consistent with burns,” Boulder Police Chief Stephen Redfearn said Sunday.
The man threw bottles that apparently contained flammable liquid that hit the ground and exploded in flames, multiple law enforcement officials briefed on the investigation told CNN, noting the exact number of bottles was unclear.

Reports so far two hospitalized but none killed.
I’m sure we will be told the necessity of understanding the motive of the attack. How it is only about Israel and in no way antisemitic.
