An ‘alarming show of force': San Diego elected officials denounce ICE work raids
Tensions remain high in San Diego following last week's Immigration and Customs Enforcement work raids at two Italian restaurants that ended with federal agents using flash-bang grenades against residents protesting the operations. Elected officials reacted with outrage. The incidents occurred Friday when heavily armed Homeland Security Investigations agents executed search warrants at Buona Forchetta and Enoteca Buona Forchetta in South Park, a serene and tree-lined neighborhood with popular restaurants, according to immigration and city officials. Yasmeen Pitts O'Keefe, a spokesperson for HSI, an agency under ICE, said the warrants were related to alleged 'violations of hiring and harboring illegal aliens and false statements.' She said four people living in the country illegally were taken into custody. Citing an ongoing investigation, she provided no other details on the investigation.. In a written statement, Buona Forchetta said it was working with its attorneys to locate and support its employees and their families. It said it was also providing support to its staff who witnessed and experienced the incident firsthand. O'Keefe said as immigration agents were serving the court-authorized warrants, a large crowd began to gather, chanting 'Shame!' and eventually preventing federal agents from leaving the area. 'The demonstrators became unruly and as a result less lethal noise flash diversionary devices were deployed to allow law enforcement to exit the scene as safely as possible,' O'Keefe said. 'When gatherings like these are formed, it not only places law enforcement in danger but also the demonstrators and onlookers attempting to impede law enforcement activity.' Video footage taken by demonstrators and bystanders has since circulated on social media. The videos show dozens of residents demanding federal agents to leave the neighborhood while cursing at them and calling them 'Nazis' and 'fascists.' They also show residents standing in front of a silver Chevy SUV, prompting a federal agent to use a flash-bang grenade to disperse the crowd but with no effect. At some point, five federal agents, most of them armed with assault rifles, approached the crowd as the government vehicles reversed and exited through another street. San Diego city officials denounced the operation and questioned the use of rifles and stun grenades for a work-site enforcement raid, which ultimately led to the public's response. 'Federal actions like these are billed as a public safety measure, but it had the complete opposite effect, ' San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria said in a written statement. 'What we saw undermines trust and creates fear in our community.' 'This was an unnecessary and alarming show of force deployed by those federal agents at a restaurant in a residential neighborhood,' San Diego Councilmember Stephen Whitburn, whose district includes South Park, told the Times. 'Setting aside the debate over immigration policy, I would like to know the justification for sending dozens of agents, wearing masks, carrying machine guns and handcuffing all the workers to execute a warrant for somebody who might be undocumented. Are you serious?' 'Last Friday was completely unnecessary,' he added, 'and residents had every right to be furious about what they were witnessing and to make their anger known, and they did that, and I'm proud of it.' San Diego Councilmember Sean Elo-Rivera echoed that statement and called on a collective response against what he said was 'state-sponsored terrorism.' 'I've seen firsthand the pain and trauma caused when our neighbors are targeted by aggressive, military-style federal enforcement — whether it's parents arrested while dropping their kids at school, residents deported while attending court, or workers ambushed while doing their jobs at local restaurants,' he said. 'When ICE agents stormed Buona Forchetta with military-style weapons, that wasn't safety — it was an attempt to terrorize San Diegans into compliance.' In a post on the social media platform X, Elo-Rivera's posted a picture of federal agents with the word 'terrorism' written over it. That post caught the attention of Stephen Miller, the Homeland Security advisor and deputy chief of staff to President Trump. 'We are living in the age of leftwing domestic terrorism. They are openly encouraging violence against law enforcement to aid and abet the invasion of America,' Miller wrote on X. Whitburn said he is a supporter of law enforcement and pointed to the professionalism of the San Diego police officers and sheriff's deputies who oftentimes take down criminals without, he said, having to use the amount of force used by federal agents last week. 'I doubt there was any need for that many agents at that restaurant on Friday,' he said. 'And that begs the question, if it wasn't necessary, why the big show of force? Was it to create fear? Was it to intimidate residents who live in the area? Is that what we want our federal government to be doing? Buona Forchetta said in its statement that it was grateful for the outpouring of support from residents and its customers. 'Buona Forchetta has always been, at its core, a family,' it wrote. 'We have built our spaces on trust, dignity, and care for one another. We stand together now and always.'

Witnesses describe ‘terrifying' scene of attack at Pearl Street Mall in Boulder
DENVER (KDVR) — As people were dining and walking through the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder on Sunday afternoon, screams and flames broke out after a man allegedly threw a makeshift incendiary device into a group of people. An investigation is underway and the suspect, identified as 45-year-old Mohamed Sabry Soliman, was arrested. According to reports from police and the FBI, the group was part of a pro-Israel demonstration and the suspect was heard yelling 'Free Palestine' after throwing incendiary devices and using a makeshift flamethrower. Overview: What to know as investigation builds in Boulder's Pearl Street Mall attack Eight people were hurt with injuries ranging from minor to severe. FOX31 spoke with multiple people who were in the area at the time and saw the incident unfold. Witnesses described feeling terrified, but that didn't stop them from doing what they could to help. 'We saw a fire and we saw a big cloud of smoke, so we ran over to it. As we got there, we saw this fire that was on the ground and it was spreading amongst the grass,' witness Matthew Chaudhary told FOX31 in an interview. Rachel Navarro said she was walking on Pearl Street when she saw a fire erupt, and she ran over to help put out the fire. 'There was a man who was holding two spray bottles, seemingly with alcohol based on the smell, and he was trying to spray the fire to keep it going and he was yelling at people and threatening to spray people with the bottles,' Navarro said. Boulder attack suspect told police he planned for a year, FBI says: Live Updates She said she saw one woman who was on the ground severely injured, and two other women whose calves were burned and bleeding, so she stayed with them to help and called the police. 'It was very scary, but I'm glad that as far as we're aware, everybody is so far ok,' she said. Alex Osante, a tourist who was in Boulder for the first time, told FOX31 that he was eating lunch at an Italian restaurant across the street when he saw a man throw what he described as a Molotov cocktail into a group of people, and chaos ensued. Osante said he saw the man throw another bottle, but he caught himself on fire, so he took off his shirt. He said the man also took off what appeared to be some kind of vest under the shirt. He said people were arguing, yelling and screaming, begging for water to douse on the woman who 'seemed like she was burning from head to toe.' He gave the two waters that he had on his table and a water bottle to help out. He said he would usually run to assist, but not knowing what was happening or if someone had a gun, he said he stayed behind a ledge where he could seek protection. 'I was in shock as to what was happening right in front of me. It was devastating because I've never seen something of this caliber happen in front of my face, and then people asking me for help with water and wanting a solution to what was going on, but it was hard to tell what was happening,' he said. Suspect charged with federal hate crime after attacking pro-Israel group in Boulder 'We just gotta live every day like our last because you never know if it will be you know,' Boulder local Mason Morris said. Sebastian Gold said he found out about the incident when his girlfriend called him from work and told him they couldn't go to the restaurant he was making reservations at because of the attack. 'It's just something you never think would happen, you know, and I know the community is going to come back, and Boulder Strong has always been a thing, but even more than ever now,' Gold said. Sara Geller said she stopped telling people that she was Jewish on October 7. She told FOX31 she was terrified. 'It just makes me very terrified for my friends who go to synagogue every week because we're not actually — Jewish Americans aren't the ones murdering Palestinians, you know, we just want our hostages to come home so all war, and I mean like all war, can just cease,' Geller said. Brian told FOX31 he was afraid of repercussions for his family. 'You see all these hate crimes that are going on around the country, things that are happening to Jews all around the country, and I've got two kids and despite my my initial instinct to run into this situation it's once I was there, I realized how dangerous it was, which is one of the reasons why I didn't go and and tackle this guy,' he said. Witnesses expressed sympathy and hopes that the victims would make a full recovery. As of Monday afternoon, each of the victims are still alive and some were still being treated for burns in the hospital. The FBI said the suspect was booked into Boulder County Jail on several charges, including first-degree murder. He was also charged with a federal hate crime. An FBI affidavit said Soliman confessed to the attack and allegedly told the police he would do it again. According to the criminal complaint, the suspect told police he had been planning the attack for a year and waited until after his daughter's graduation to attack. He told investigators he researched and specifically targeted a 'Zionist group.' The group whom he threw the makeshift flamethrower and incendiary device into were holding a demonstration, which the city of Boulder said is a weekly peaceful event. The demonstration was part of the Run for Their Lives organization, according to the complaint. The group hosts global running and walking events where local communities meet once a week to call 'for the immediate release of the hostages held by Hamas,' the website said.

US aluminum and steel prices surge as Trump doubles tariffs
Futures tracking aluminum and steel prices in the U.S. surged after President Donald Trump said he would double tariffs on the metals this week. Contracts linked to the prices that manufacturers pay to get aluminum delivered to the U.S. Midwest jumped 54% to the highest since 2013 on the Comex exchange in New York on Monday - offering an early glimpse of the much higher costs for American factories, with import levies set to rise to 50% from Wednesday. Aluminum used in everything from beer cans to engine blocks and window frames was priced at a premium of 58 cents a pound, or about $1,280 a ton, in the Midwest over benchmark London contracts. That suggests U.S. buyers could end up paying about 50% more than international competitors to get hold of the metal. Trump hopes the increased levies will protect margins for domestic mills and spur investment in new production capacity, and shares of U.S. steel and aluminum makers surged in after-hours trading after the announcement on Friday. But construction companies have warned that levies on steel and aluminum - which Trump had already raised from 10% to 25% - will increase the cost of critical building materials. Comex steel futures were up more than 8% before paring some of the gains on Monday - and while both contracts are relatively illiquid - the moves indicate that the commercial burden of the tariffs will weigh most heavily on the U.S. aluminum market. More than 80% of the aluminum used in the U.S. is supplied via imports, while less than 20% of the country's steel is sourced from overseas, according to Morgan Stanley. 'We expect prices to rise - the U.S. does not have enough domestic capacity of either,' analysts at Citigroup Inc. said in an emailed note. For aluminum in particular, the tariffs have 'mostly just functioned as a tax on consumers thus far.' Benchmark aluminum contracts on the London Metal Exchange traded 0.9% higher to settle at $2,466 a ton at 5:50 p.m. local time. Copper was up 1.2% in London and nearly 4% higher on Comex, as analysts said the heightened levies make it more likely that Trump will follow through with plans to place tariffs on the metal. 'The market also appears to be pricing a higher likelihood of copper tariffs, with COMEX outperforming LME,' Morgan Stanley analysts led by Amy Gower said in an emailed note, noting that U.S. buyers have been front-loading imports ahead of potential tariffs. 'For now, the COMEX premium is likely to continue pulling material to the U.S., drawing down ex-U.S. inventories and keeping ex-U.S. markets tight.'
