Crime: “terrorist attack”? – Several injuries at Attack in the USA

After an attack on the open road with several injuries in the US state of Colorado, the Federal Police FBI investigates. The incident occurred in the afternoon (local time) in the city of Boulder that a suspect was arrested, said the city’s police chief, Steve Redfearn, at a press conference.

FBI boss Kash Patel spoke on platform X of a “targeted terrorist attack” in the city. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and US Department Protection Minister Kristi NoEM also ordered the incident there a terrorist attack there a little later. “Terror has no place in our great country,” Rubio wrote about X. The local chief of police said it was far too early to speculate about the motif. “We are not talking about a terrorist attack at the moment,” said Redfearn.

In his presentation, a pro-Israeli group was at the scene, which demonstrated peacefully. The police are currently trying to find out whether this group or other people have been attacked. The broadcaster CBS News, citing witnesses on site, reported that a suspect had attacked people who had taken part in a march to remember the Israeli hostages captured in the Gaza Strip with Molotowcocktails.

According to Redfearn, the police received the information in the first call for the incident that people had set fire. The injuries they had seen on site fit, he said. However, the police could not say for sure how the injuries had occurred. Redfearn spoke of burns and other injuries, some of which are very serious. The victims of the attack were therefore taken to the hospital.
