Authorities are now investigating a shooting in Kansas that killed one Indian man and wounded another as a hate crime, the FBI said.
The shooting last week sparked unease in Kansas and across the globe, after witnesses said that the accused gunman had told the two men to "get out
of my country" before opening fire.
While President Donald Trump has been criticised for not speaking out on the shooting in Olathe, Kansas, following the FBI's announcement the White House called the attack "an act of racially motivated hatred".
One of the Indian men shot during the attack - Srinivas Kuchibhotla, 32 - died in the hospital from his wounds, police said.
Alok Madasani, 32, of Overland Park, Kansas, who was injured, was released from the hospital on Friday, a day after the attack. Both men worked for Garmin, the technology firm. The attack also wounded a third man who apparently tried to intervene.
