The individual from Egypt who is believed to have harmed 12 individuals by setting off an incendiary device during a demonstration supporting Israel in Boulder, Colorado, had previously been employed in the healthcare sector and as a driver for a ridesharing service before carrying out the atrocious deed.
Mohamed Sabry Soliman, aged 45, initially arrived in the United States on a temporary visa in August 2022. Following the expiration of this visa in February 2023, he chose to stay in the country. Subsequently, in the next month, he was issued a work visa that was valid until March of the current year.
According to information obtained by Fox News Digital, Soliman briefly worked in the accounting department of a medical facility named Veros Health, located in Centennial, a suburb of Denver, during the early stages of his authorized work period in the nation.
