A peaceful gathering in Boulder, Colorado, turned into chaos on Sunday after a shocking firebomb attack left eight people injured.
US President Donald Trump took to social media to issue a strong condemnation and blame former US President Joe Biden’s border policies.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said, “Yesterday’s horrific attack in Boulder, Colorado, WILL NOT BE TOLERATED in the United States of America. He came in through Biden’s ridiculous Open Border Policy, which has hurt our Country so badly. He must go out under ‘TRUMP’ Policy.”
Trump called the incident an act of terrorism and said it was another reason why America needs stronger borders. “Acts of Terrorism will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law. This is yet another example of why we must keep our Borders SECURE, and deport Illegal, Anti-American Radicals from our Homeland. My heart goes out to the victims of this terrible tragedy, and the Great People of Boulder, Colorado!”
Boulder terror attack
The attack happened at the Pearl Street Mall, a popular pedestrian area in downtown Boulder, as about 20 people gathered for a weekly demonstration organised by ‘Run For Their Lives’, a group demanding the release of Israeli hostages held in Gaza.
According to law enforcement, the attacker, identified as 45-year-old Mohamed Sabry Soliman , threw an incendiary device while shouting “Free Palestine.” Witnesses described the device as a makeshift flamethrower, which caused serious burns to some of the victims.
A video shared online captured the terrifying scene, with someone shouting, “He’s right there. He’s throwing Molotov cocktails,” as police moved in. The suspect was arrested at the scene and is currently hospitalised with injuries. Authorities confirmed he acted alone and that there are no other suspects.
FBI deputy director Dan Bongino said the incident was being treated as ideologically motivated violence . “This act of terror is being investigated as an act of ideologically motivated violence based on the early information, the evidence, and witness accounts,” he said. “We will speak clearly on these incidents when the facts warrant it.”
Mark Michalek, the FBI’s special agent in charge in Denver, said, “Sadly, attacks like this are becoming too common across the country. This is an example of how perpetrators of violence continue to threaten communities across the nation.”
The Department of Justice condemned the violence as “a needless act of violence,” while pointing to a recent rise in attacks targeting Jewish Americans.
Following Sunday’s incident, police evacuated several blocks of Pearl Street while K9 units searched for additional threats. Residents were urged to stay away as officers secured the area.
Soliman is expected to face serious charges. Officials have assured the public he will be held accountable.
