The FBI does not dispute that the former US President Donald Trump was hit by a bullet during the assassination attempt, but a fragment of it could have caused injury, the Bureau said in a statement.

"What hit President Trump's ear was a bullet, whole or fragmented into parts, fired from the deceased subject's weapon," the FBI said in a statement.

Trump's doctor this week entered into a discussion in absentia with FBI director Christopher Wray, considering that during congressional hearings he called the cause of the injury of the ex-president a bullet, a fragment or a piece of glass. The doctor, for his part, stressed that there was no evidence confirming that the wound could have been caused by something other than a bullet.

At Trump's campaign speech in A shooting occurred in Pennsylvania on July 13, the ex-president was wounded in the ear, one of the spectators was killed, two more were critically injured. The US Secret Service reported that it had eliminated the suspect, who fired several times towards the stage. As the New York Post reported, he was hiding on the roof of a production building about 100 meters from the stage, outside the territory where the event was held. The FBI is investigating the incident as an assassination attempt and possible domestic terrorism. According to the bureau, the suspect is 20—year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks.
