The suspect in Sunday’s antisemitic terror attack in Colorado hoped to pull off a mass shooting, but his immigration status prevented him from buying a gun —  and he now faces up to 624 years behind bars if convicted in the horror, officials said Monday. Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, admitted to a detective that he initially planned on gunning down his victims, even taking a concealed-carry class where he learned how to fire a weapon, authorities said. But the Egyptian national was blocked from purchasing the weapon because his US visa had expired, Judicial District Attorney Michael Dougherty said at a press conference Monday afternoon in Boulder.
