THE BBC BREAKFAST NEWS SHOW OPENED WITH THE SAD NEWS. 10:52, 02 Jun 2025 Sally Nugent and Jon Kay returned to BBC Breakfast on Monday morning, bringing fans of the show all the latest news,

however it was kicked off with some tragic news. Sally reported on an attack that had taken place in the United States during the night. As Jon handed over to his co-star, he announced:

"Sally has more of today's news, and a developing story overnight in the States". She went on to say: "That's right, Jon. We start with this story. Six people have

been injured in the US state of Colorado after an attacker used a makeshift flamethrower and a Molotov cocktail to target a rally supporting Israeli hostages in Gaza. "The FBI says

it's treating the incident as an act of terrorism. A 45-year-old man has been arrested." The attack took place at an outdoor shopping mall in the city of Boulder in Colorado, and

it has now been confirmed that eight people were injured during the incident. Four women and four men, aged between 52 and 88, have been taken to Denver metro hospitals. At least one person

is in critical condition, and other victims are being treated for burns and other injuries. Article continues below They were taking part in a Run for Their Lives march, which is an

organisation aiming to raise awareness for Israeli hostages held in Gaza. The march was a "regularly scheduled" and "peaceful event," the FBI has said. The suspect,

Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, has been taken into custody, with police saying they are "fairly confident" he acted alone. Boulder police have shared their plans to step up security at

Jewish events over the coming days. Aaron Brockett, Mayor of Boulder, said he is saddened by the "appalling attack" in a post shared to X. He also wrote: "I want to be clear

that violence and hatred have no place here. Attacks like these seek to strike terror in people's hearts and divide us from one another, but Boulder will stand strong together."

Last week, viewers of the breakfast show weren't happy as distressing footage was shown on air from the incident in Liverpool. In the distressing footage, the automobile can be seen

hurtling into the crowd, triggering panicked reactions and civilians desperately fleeing the scene. Football supporters were captured punching and kicking a car, followed by hurling of

bottles. A fan then opened the driver's side door, providing a look at the assailant. Sally subsequently chatted with correspondent Yunus Mulla, broadcasting directly from Liverpool

with recent developments concerning the event. BBC viewers were left dismayed post-segment, after the full footage of the car was broadcasted, with numerous individuals flocking to X

(formerly Twitter) to communicate their displeasure. One viewer aired their frustration: "Why do #BBCBreakfast keep showing the car in Liverpool? It is not needed and

inappropriate." Another questioned the legality: "Are @BBCBreakfast even allowed to show footage of that car attack, in Liverpool?" Article continues below Additionally, a

third viewer shared their dismay: "Very distressing to see, and I can't imagine what the victims/families must feel." BBC BREAKFAST AIRS ON WEEKDAYS AT 6AM ON BBC ONE _Make
