Police said a male suspect was taken into custody after an attack that injured multiple people in Boulder, Colorado, in what the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) director described as a “targeted” act of terror.
While stressing the information was “very preliminary”, Boulder police chief Stephen Redfearn said that the man was apprehended following calls to the police dispatch of someone with a weapon who was “setting people on fire”.
Redfearn said he wasn’t in a position to identify the suspect yet, noting that he’d been taken to the hospital. He said there were multiple injuries among the victims, ranging “from very serious to more minor”.
According to CBS News, which cited witnesses at the scene, a suspect attacked people with Molotov cocktails who were participating in a walk to remember the Israeli hostages who remain in Gaza.

In a statement, FBI director Kash Patel referred to the incident as a targeted terror attack and mentioned that agents were present on the scene.

Redfearn, however, said it was too early to speculate about a motive.
“We are not calling it a terror attack at this moment,” he said.
“This was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in downtown Boulder on Pearl Street and this act was unacceptable,” he said.

“I urge you to keep in mind the victims, their families, and everyone impacted by this tragedy.”

Someone opened fire on a group of people leaving an event hosted by the American Jewish Committee, an advocacy group that fights antisemitism and supports Israel.
The shooting fuelled polarisation in the United States over the war in Gaza between supporters of Israel and pro-Palestinian demonstrators.
