BOULDER, Colo. – In the wake of a terror attack in the center of Boulder, Colorado, the county’s GOP chair criticized local and state authorities for implementing policies that protect individuals who are in the U.S. without legal status, suggesting these officials are prioritizing tolerance over law enforcement.
Illegal Egyptian national Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, faces arrest following accusations of hurling Molotov cocktails into a gathering of peaceful pro-Israel protestors near the Boulder County courthouse, all while shouting, “Free Palestine.”
Authorities said eight people suffered burn injuries, and a total of 12 people were injured in the attack, which happened on the eve of Shavuot.

Soliman is charged with multiple counts of attempted first-degree murder, first-degree assault, possession of incendiary devices, and more than a dozen counts of attempted use of an incendiary device.
He is also facing federal charges for allegedly committing a hate crime involving actual or perceived race, religion or national origin.
The Boulder County commissioners and Boulder County Sheriff’s Office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.
