The harrowing incident at an Austin, Texas bar, which may have been a terrorist attack, has unveiled disturbing details about the shooter. The assailant, identified as Ndiaga Diagne, a 53-year-old Senegalese national, was found to have an Iranian flag and pictures of leaders from the Islamic Republic in his residence, as reported.
Diagne’s violent outburst at Buford’s Backyard Beer Garden on a Sunday night resulted in two fatalities and 14 injuries. Witnesses recount that he arrived at the scene wearing a shirt emblazoned with “Property of Allah” before opening fire. Authorities suggest his actions could have been influenced by recent joint military actions by Israel and the United States.
In the aftermath of the tragedy, Austin police officers neutralized Diagne. A subsequent search of his home revealed symbols of potential ideological motivations—an Iranian flag and images of Iranian leaders, according to sources familiar with the investigation, as reported by CBS News.
Further probing into Diagne’s possessions uncovered a Quran in his vehicle and an undershirt adorned with the Iranian flag or similar symbols, as previously disclosed by The Post. FBI Special Agent Alex Doran emphasized that investigators are actively working to establish the shooter’s precise motive, noting there are “indicators” that suggest a possible link to terrorism.
