A suspect is in custody after what authorities call a "targeted act of violence" at Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado. Witnesses said he threw Molotov cocktails at people supporting Israeli hostages.

The man who authorities say firebombed a group in Boulder, Colorado, demonstrating for the release of Israeli hostages, has been charged in state court with over 100 counts, including attempted murder and assault.
