Media caption, FBI says there were 'indicators' of terrorism in Austin bar shootingPublished1 March 2026 Two people were killed and over a dozen injured in a shooting outside a beer garden in Austin, Texas, in an incident the FBI says may be related to terrorism. The suspect has been identified as Ndiaga Diagne, a naturalised American citizen born in Senegal, according to the BBC's US partner CBS News and other US media. After responding to calls of an active shooter at around 02:00 local time (08:00 GMT) on Sunday near Buford's bar in the southern US state's capital, police said they shot and killed the suspect, bringing the death toll to three. Police have not offered a motive and have not officially identified Diagne. Of the survivors, 14 were taken to hospital, three in a critical condition. Two sources familiar with the investigation told CBS News that the gunman was wearing a sweatshirt with the words "Property of Allah".
