A federal grand jury has indicted Peter Larsen, a 48-year-old resident of Orem, Utah, on federal hate crime charges. The indictment stems from an incident last month at the West Valley mall in Utah, where Larsen allegedly stabbed a Muslim man multiple times.

According to federal authorities, Larsen is formally charged with willfully causing bodily injury to the victim because of the victim's actual or perceived religion. The federal indictment adds to the legal charges the suspect already faces in connection with the lethal mall stabbing.
