Law enforcement found 16 unused Molotov cocktails after the attack in Boulder, Colorado, that left several people injured on Sunday, June 1, local District Attorney Michael Dougherty said in a press conference on Monday. Authorities also identified four additional victims in the attack, raising the total number of people injured to 12, Boulder Police Chief Stephen Redfearn said during the conference. Two of those victims are still in the hospital, he said. The suspect, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, is being charged with a federal hate crime, plus numerous state charges including eight counts of attempted murder, according to acting US Attorney for the District of Colorado J Bishop Grewell. 'According to our complaint, and the charges brought by DA Dougherty's office, Mr Soliman stated that he had been planning this attack for a year, and he acted because he hated what he called 'the Zionist group,'' Grewell said. Officials thanked community members who responded in the immediate aftermath of the attack and local law enforcement. Credit: City of Boulder via Storyful
