Suspect in Texas shooting wore ‘Property of Allah’ clothing with Iranian flag: Associated Press

The FBI is investigating the shooting as a potential act of terrorism due to the suspect's clothing featuring religious and foreign symbols, officials said.

  • On Sunday, March 1, 2026, two victims were killed and 14 wounded outside Buford's Backyard Beer Garden on Sixth Street, Austin, Texas, before officers shot and killed 53-year-old suspect Ndiaga Diagne.
  • Alex Doran, acting agent in charge of the FBI's San Antonio office, said the investigation is ongoing as `We have members from our Evidence Response team as well as our many other specialty teams, including our digital forensics folks that are on scene, helping to address the scene and gather additional evidence.`
  • Responding officers reported the suspect's SUV fired a pistol at people on the patio before he parked, exited with a rifle, and began shooting in the area.
  • An emergency response sent 140 blood units to Austin, and University of Texas President Jim Davis said `Our prayers are with the victims and all those impacted`, on Sunday.
  • Authorities note the attack follows at least two other high-profile shootings on Austin's Sixth Street and a Cincinnati nightclub shooting that wounded nine people, amid five mass killings recorded this year.
