He faces murder, attempted murder, and 12 federal hate crime charges in the Boulder attack, which killed one and injured seven on the Pearl Street Mall.Investigators allege Soliman, disguised as a gardener, threw Molotov cocktails at a group peacefully demonstrating for the release of Israeli hostages. Authorities say he confessed to the attack in custody.As court proceedings continue, Soliman remains in custody at the Boulder County Jail._______Watch KOAA News5 on your time, anytime with our free streaming app available for your Roku, FireTV, AppleTV and Android TV.
