Federal officials have charged Boulder, Colorado, terrorist attack suspect Mohamed Sabry Soliman with a hate crime involving actual or perceived race, religion, or national origin.

Soliman, 45, was charged with first-degree murder, crimes against at-risk adults/elderly, assault, criminal attempt to commit class one and class two felonies and use of explosives or incendiary devices during a felony.

Soliman allegedly threw explosives into a crowd Sunday in Boulder as a pro-Israel group, “Run for Their Lives,” participated in a gathering on Pearl Street advocating for Hamas to release Israeli hostages. 

Federal charging documents state that he allegedly “threw two lit Molotov cocktails at individuals participating in a pro-Israel gathering near the Boulder Courthouse.”

Police responded to the area after receiving reports of a man with a weapon setting people on fire. 

“We are aware of and fully investigating a targeted terror attack in Boulder, Colorado,” FBI director Kash Patel said. “Our agents and local law enforcement are on the scene already, and we will share updates as more information becomes available.”

In a Monday update, Boulder police said no victims have died. The department will host a press conference later on Monday.

Soliman was living in the United States illegally after entering on a work visa two years ago that has since expired, according to federal officials.

Soliman was booked into the Boulder County Jail on Sunday evening and remains held on a $10 million bond.
