- Mohamed Sabry Soliman faces federal hate crime charges for allegedly launching Molotov cocktails at a peaceful demonstration in Boulder on June 1, causing injuries to at least 15 people and a dog.

- The case proceeds with Soliman's next federal court date set for July 15, where prosecutors aim to prove the hate crime charge that carries up to 10 years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine.
