Former US President Donald Trump may not have been injured by a bullet during the shooting at a rally in Pennsylvania, states FBI Director Christopher Wray.
"With respect to former President Trump, there's some question about whether or not it's a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear," Wray stated during his testimony before the US House Judiciary Committee.
As the source reminds, Trump himself has claimed that he sustained a gunshot wound during the shooting at the campaign rally.
