Witnesses at the scene told CBS Colorado that the suspect attacked people with Molotov cocktails who were participating in a walk to remember the Israeli hostages who remain in Gaza.

Run For Their Lives, which organized the walk, said, “This is not a protest; it is a peaceful walk to show solidarity with the hostages and their families, and a plea for their release.” The group met at 1 p.m. at Pearl Street and 8th Street to walk the length of the Pearl Street Mall and back with a stop at the courthouse for a video.

    Ah, so that’s why the FBI is going in now, instead of literally any other time this has happened in the past 8-10 years (at least)

      Probably because someone firebombed a pedestrian mall. That’s the kind of thing that they tend to investigate.

        The FBI are generally inept idiots, and that was before America went Fascist. Their presence isn’t going to be a help, especially now. Read through history. They’ve screwed up so many investigations.
