DALLAS — The man who took hostages inside a Colleyville synagogue last weekend died after being shot by FBI agents following a nearly 11-hour standoff that authorities are calling an act of terrorism.
Matthew DeSarno, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Dallas office, said at a news conference Friday that the incident was committed by a terrorist who was targeting the Jewish community.
“Let me be clear, this was both a hate crime and an act of terrorism,” DeSarno said.
