A man received a life sentence for a firebombing that killed one and injured twelve during a pro-Israel hostage demonstration in Boulder, Colorado. Mohamed Sabry Soliman pleaded guilty to the June 2025 attack, which involved Molotov cocktails thrown at demonstrators. He expressed regret but was found to have targeted victims because they were Jewish. Soliman, an Egyptian national living illegally in the U.S., also faces federal hate crime charges. The attack occurred on Pearl Street, a pedestrian mall, and the victim died weeks later from her injuries.
