A man who is suspected of attempting to throw Molotov cocktails at gay paradegoers in the Croatian capital of Zagreb was arrested last week. The 25-year-old man, identified only as Jossip S., is accused of preparing the bottles of gasoline at his home with intent to throw at participants of Sunday's gay pride parade, which took place in Zagreb's main square, according to Serbianna.com.
Police spotted the suspect with two assistants armed with eggs and tomatoes. He is being held on charges of attempting to endanger lives and property by an act of hatred, though he has yet to be indicted. He is the first person to face charges under Croatia's hate-crimes law, approved by the legislature in 2006. (The Advocate)
