Former US President Donald Trump was injured in an assassination attempt at a rally in Pennsylvania.
The Federal Bureau of Investigations is seeking to interview former President Donald Trump in its investigation of the assassination attempt to obtain a victim statement — a standard part of the investigation because he is a crime victim.
The FBI also said in a statement Thursday that investigators continue to examine bullet fragments and other evidence in the attack on Mr. Trump at his Pennsylvania rally this month, but that the agency has always considered the shooting an attempted assassination of the former president.
The bureau issued the statement in response to questions about FBI Director Christopher Wray's testimony on Capitol Hill on Wednesday, in which he said there is still some question about whether Mr. Trump was hit with a bullet or shrapnel.
Questions about Mr. Trump's wound have stoked political backlash.
