An FBI official on Thursday appeared to acknowledge that the bureau classified the mass shooting that left a U.S. representative in perilous condition and wounded several U.S. Capitol Police officers as a “suicide by cop.”

Brad Wiegmann, deputy assistant attorney general for the Department of Justice’s National Security Division, said in his opening statement during a congressional hearing in Washington that James Hodgkinson was a domestic terrorist.
