Several people suffered burns and other injuries Sunday in the US state of Colorado in what the FBI called a “targeted terror attack” against demonstrators seeking the release of Israeli hostages held in Gaza.<\/p>\n
Police in the city of Boulder said a man was taken into custody. They were more cautious in presuming a possible motive for the attack, which multiple sources said was committed against members of the Jewish community during a peaceful gathering.<\/p>\n
Local media cited eyewitnesses describing a man throwing something resembling a homemade Molotov cocktail at the group.<\/p>\n
In one video apparently of the attack, a shirtless man holding clear bottles in his hands is seen pacing as the grass in front of him burns.<\/p>\n
He can be heard screaming “End Zionists!” “Palestine is Free!” and “They are killers!” towards several people in red t-shirts as they tend to a person lying on the ground.<\/p>\n
Other images showed billowing black smoke above a park.<\/p>\n
“We are aware of and fully investigating a targeted terror attack in Boulder, Colorado,” FBI chief Kash Patel said on X.<\/p>\n
The White House said President Donald Trump has been briefed on the incident.<\/p>\n
