A man threw fire bombs at people supporting Israel during a peaceful gathering Sunday afternoon. Mohamed Soliman attacked eight people at Pearl Street Mall near Denver. The 45-year-old Egyptian shouted about Palestine and used homemade weapons. Police arrested him after witnesses called for help around 1:30 pm. FBI agents treat the violence as terrorism.

The victims ranged from 52 to 88 years old and suffered burns from the attack. One person hurt was a Holocaust survivor who regularly attended the weekly demonstrations. The group Run for Their Lives organizes walks supporting Israeli hostages held captive. Soliman arrived without a shirt and carried bottles filled with dangerous liquids. Video shows people running and grass catching fire during the chaos.

Authorities say Soliman came to America on a work visa that expired last year. He lived in Colorado Springs before the attack happened. Officials call this targeted violence against Jewish people gathering peacefully. Israel's foreign minister condemned the attack as pure hatred. Similar violence occurred two weeks earlier when someone shot embassy workers outside a Jewish museum.
