They say four more people with minor injuries have come forward to meet with law enforcement to remain hospitalized. The man accused in the attack on people marching in support of Israeli hostages held by Hamas at his first court appearance Monday, as Colorado Public Radio's Haley.

May reports, well, right now he's facing at least one federal hate crime charge based on the planned nature of the attack. And more could be coming because authorities say the materials he used to make the Molotov cocktails weren't manufactured in Colorado, and that could make this an interstate crime. Now, police say he told them that he used the cocktails because he had previously tried to buy a gun but was not legally able to do so. In addition to the federal charge, the Boulder DA's filed 42 counts against Suleiman. Those charges range from attempted murder to the possession of an incendiary device, and he's currently being held on a $10 million bond.

It takes the votes of four justices to grant review of a lower court decision. And in today's case, only the court's three most conservative justices, Thomas Alito and Gorsuch, voted to hear the appeal. Justice Kavanaugh, who declined to provide the fourth vote needed to hear the case next term, nonetheless filed a statement calling the lower court decision questionable. He gave no reason why he voted against hearing the case, except to say that there will be other similar cases before the court soon, as he put it, should assist in making the ultimate decision on the AR15.

However, the two sides did agree to swap the remains of thousands of war dead, as well as seriously wounded troops and soldiers under the age of 25. NPR Shamana Kakis reports from Kyiv, where Ukraine claims it hit more than 40 Russian warplanes deep in Russian territory. And Sunday's wide ranging drone attack in.

A statement, the head of Ukraine's security service, Lt. Gen. Vassal Malyuk, said Russia uses these planes to bomb Ukraine nearly every night. He wrote on social media, our strikes will continue as long as Russia terrorizes Ukrainians with missiles and shahed drones. In this weekend's operation, officially dubbed Spiderweb, Malyuk explained that it was a task that took more than 18 months to plan. It involved hiding drones inside the roofs of wooden cabins placed on trucks. Mali said the roofs were opened remotely, remotely and the drones flew out to hit the Russian bombers. Russia acknowledges the bombers were hit but is disputing the scale. Joanna Kakissis, NPR News, Kiev.

More than a million Ford vehicles built in the last four years have a software error that could cause the images to freeze or be delayed. Meanwhile, many Volvos over the same time frame were reporting missing images. Some of Chrysler's Ram promasters, too, and some newer Volkswagen SUVs were struggling with distorted rear view images. In some cases, a simple software update will fix it, while some owners will need to visit a dealership. As always with safety recalls, the repairs are free. You can check if your car is covered by any recall on the government's safer car app. Camila Domonosky, NPR News.

The Homeland Security Department has removed a list of sanctuary jurisdictions from its website. The list came down Sunday after it was posted last week and included dozens of cities and counties across 37 states and the District of Columbia that the department says refuses to assist federal immigration authorities. The list received significant pushback from local officials, including mayors and law enforcement, early in person. Voting begins Tuesday in New Jersey's primary election for governor. Ahead of next week's primary, Election Day. Five candidates make up the Republican field, with President Trump endorsing Jack Cittarelli, who has said he would end any sanctuary policies for immigrants in the country illegally. Six candidates make up the Democratic field. This is NPR News.
