Bond set for man accused of trying to run over MS officer
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A man accused of trying to run a Southaven, Mississippi, police officer over in a stolen car last week is now being held in jail on a $250,000 bond.
Marcus Coleman's bond was revoked on Monday; however, according to the DeSoto County jail log, a bond was set after he appeared in court on Wednesday.
Coleman, 20, is charged with Aggravated Assault on a Police Officer, Conspiracy to commit a crime – felony, Disorderly Conduct – failure to comply, Suspended Drivers License, Fleeing/Eluding an officer in a Motor Vehicle, two counts of Possession of Paraphernalia, Receiving Stolen Property – Felony, Resisting Arrest, and Violation of Probation.
On June 18, officers with the Southaven Police Department responded to reports of a stolen vehicle located at the Sonic on 1185 Main Street.
The suspect was found near the location, but when officers attempted to stop him, he allegedly rammed officers with the stolen car. Police say the suspect then tried to run over one of the officers, and shots were fired.

An 82-year-old woman who was injured in a firebomb attack in Boulder, Colorado, has died
DENVER (AP) — An 82-year-old Colorado woman who was injured in a Molotov cocktail attack on demonstrators in support of Israeli hostages this month has died, according to court documents filed Monday. Karen Diamond died as a result of 'the severe injuries that she suffered in the attack,' Boulder County District Attorney's Office said in a statement. Mohamed Sabry Soliman was indicted last week on 12 hate crime counts in the June 1 attack in downtown Boulder. He is accused of trying to kill the eight people who were hurt when he threw Molotov cocktails — bottles filled with flammable liquid that are ignited — as well as other people nearby. Soliman's attorney, David Kraut, entered the not guilty plea on Soliman's behalf during a hearing Friday. Soliman was being represented by public defenders who do not comment on their cases to news media. Investigators say Soliman told them he intended to kill the roughly 20 participants at the weekly demonstration on Boulder's Pearl Street pedestrian mall. But he threw just two of his over two dozen Molotov cocktails while yelling 'Free Palestine.' Soliman, who is also being prosecuted in state court for attempted murder and other charges, told investigators he tried to buy a gun but was not able to because he was not a 'legal citizen.' Soliman did not speak during the hearing last week, and he listened to translations provided by an Arabic interpreter through headphones. The Egyptian national has been living in the U.S. illegally with his family, according to federal authorities. Soliman posed as a gardener and wore a construction vest to get close to the group before launching the attack, prosecutors allege. Prosecutors say the victims were targeted because of their perceived or actual national origin. An attack motivated by someone's political views is not considered a hate crime under federal law.

Boxing trainer, 2 others must testify at Bryan Kohberger's Idaho murders trial, judge rules
Three witnesses will be required to travel to Idaho to testify at the trial of Bryan Kohberger, the man accused of stabbing to death four University of Idaho students in 2022, a Pennsylvania judge ruled Monday. The subpoenas were granted for a boxing trainer who knew Kohberger as a teenager, a childhood acquaintance of Kohberger's and a third man whose significance was not explained. Their testimonies had been requested by Kohberger's defense team. Kohberger, 30, is accused of sneaking into a rental home in Moscow, Idaho, not far from the University of Idaho campus, and killing Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves on Nov. 13, 2022. He was arrested weeks later at his parents' home in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania, and now faces four murder charges in addition to another charge for burglary. The students' deaths shocked the rural Idaho community and neighboring Pullman, Washington, where Kohberger was a graduate student studying criminology at Washington State University. A prison official came to court with records from Kohberger's stay in the Monroe County Correctional Facility after he was arrested, although the subpoena hearing was continued because he must still provide a statement attesting to their authenticity. Common Pleas Judge Arthur Zulick also continued for a week the hearing regarding a subpoena for Ralph Vecchio, who owns a car dealership where Kohberger's parents purchased a Hyundai Elantra in 2019. There was uncertainty about whether the subpoena was directed at Vecchio or at his father, who owned the business at the time of the purchase. The judge said prosecution witness subpoenas will also be at issue next week. A sixth witness' hearing had previously been rescheduled for next week because of a travel conflict, and the seventh person sought by the defense consented last week to travel to Idaho for the trial expected to begin in August. Brandon Andreola argued unsuccessfully that his subpoena should be canceled, saying he is his family's sole breadwinner and is worried publicity might lead to him losing his job. Andreola said his "relationship with Bryan Kohberger has been minimal and distant since high school," with their last "significant interaction" taking place in 2020, two years before the stabbings. A flyer seeking information about the killings of four University of Idaho students who were found dead is displayed on a table along with buttons and bracelets on Nov. 30, 2022, during a vigil in memory of the victims in Moscow, Idaho. Ted S. Warren / AP "If I'm brought out there, I believe the attention will be multiple times greater than the attention that I've received already," Andreola argued. Jesse Harris said he trained Kohberger as a 15- or 16-year-old at a boxing gym but does not think he has testimony that will help the case. Harris also said a relative's health problems were an issue and he is needed to run a small construction company. Zulick approved the summonses for Andreola and Harris, along with a third one for witness Anthony Somma, who did not oppose it. Zulick said Harris can return to his courtroom if his family member's health issues become a barrier to Harris' ability to travel to Idaho. Kohberger's trial is on track to begin Aug. 11 in Boise, Idaho, after a judge declined his lawyer's request for a delay last week. Fourth District Judge Steven Hippler, of Idaho, told the defense team he would not postpone the trial in a ruling that also rejected their request to present theories suggesting the possibility of "alternate perpetrators." The judge wrote that the evidence for those theories presented by the defense is "entirely irrelevant." Opening arguments will likely take place around Aug. 18, according to that ruling. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. In a court filing, his lawyers said Kohberger was on a long drive by himself around the time the four were killed. Kohberger was silent during his arraignment, prompting a judge to enter a not guilty plea on his behalf. A gag order has largely kept attorneys, investigators and others from speaking publicly about the investigation or trial. The defense team's lawyer in the Monroe County Courthouse on Monday, Abigail Parnell, declined to comment.

According to the DA's office, the amended complaint names a total of 29 victims in the attack, including 13 who suffered physical injuries. The suspect is accused of using Molotov cocktails to attack members of the group participating in a Run For Their Lives event on June 1 as they walked to bring awareness to Israeli hostages held by Hamas. Soliman is also charged with 12 federal counts of hate crimes and entered a plea not guilty. Mohamed Sabry Soliman is charged with the attack in Boulder, Colorado, on June 1, 2025. Boulder Police Department According to an indictment, Soliman brought a backpack weed sprayer filled with flammable liquid and a black plastic container filled with 18 glass bottles and jars full of flammable liquid, several with red rags stuffed through the top to act as a wick. More than a dozen people were injured in the attack. His next appearance in Boulder County Court for state charges has been scheduled for July 15. The case is under investigation by the FBI and the Boulder Police Department. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Colorado and the Civil Rights Division's Criminal Section are prosecuting the case.
