Several people were injured and some may have been set on fire at an outdoor mall in Boulder, Colorado, police said. Police said a man was taken into custody in an attack that the FBI immediately described as an act of terror. Boulder police said there were “several victims� in the attack. The injuries authorities found were consistent with reports of individuals being set on fire, Boulder Police Chief Steve Redfearn said. Redfearn told reporters Sunday evening that it was too early to discuss a motive but that witnesses were being interviewed. The attack took place at a pedestrian mall where demonstrators had gathered to call for the release of hostages who remain in Gaza.

The 10 men who escaped from a New Orleans jail more than two weeks ago by cutting out a hole behind a toilet received help from at least 15 people, many of them friends and family who provided food, cash, transport and shelter according to court documents. Some are held on bonds $1 million or higher. Records reviewed by The Associated Press show how some of the fugitives received aid before and after their escape � including from a number of people named in police reports but not facing charges, such as an apparent former jail employee. Authorities upped the reward to $50,000 for each of the two remaining fugitives.
