CBS News has obtained a photo showing the Austin gunman wearing a shirt emblazoned with a design similar to the Iranian flag.
Ndiaga Diagne, who was killed by police after he shot two people and wounded 14, was also wearing a hoodie that said “Property of Allah.”
U.S. officials say Diagne was a Senegalese-born immigrant who came to the U.S. in 2000 on a tourist visa, got a green card in 2006 after marrying a U.S. citizen and became an American citizen in 2013.
He had at least one prior arrest in 2022 in Texas stemming from a car collision. Sources familiar with the investigation also said Diagne had a history of mental health issues.
Officials have said they’ve been probing a potential terrorism nexus.
