Targeted Terror Attack Injures Several, Suspect In Custody Boulder Colorado

News summary

A targeted terror attack occurred at the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado, during a demonstration calling for the release of hostages held in Gaza, where several people were injured and some were set on fire. Police apprehended a male suspect, who was taken to a hospital with minor injuries, while multiple victims with burn and other injuries ranging from serious to minor were treated at local hospitals. The FBI described the incident as a "targeted terror attack," and Boulder Police Chief Stephen Redfearn emphasized that it was too early to speculate on a motive. Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser labeled the attack a hate crime, noting the targeted group meets weekly at the mall to raise awareness for the hostages. Authorities have closed off a large area of downtown Boulder and urged the public to avoid the scene as investigations continue. Governor Jared Polis condemned the act as unacceptable, affirming the state's commitment to supporting the investigation.
