In a welcome display of transparency, Austin police have released bodycam footage, surveillance clips, and frantic 911 calls from the March 1, 2026, spree shooting outside Buford’s Backyard Bar in downtown Austin, Texas. The videos capture the moments when the heroic cops shot shot and killed Islamist terrorist Ndiaga Diagne, a radical jihadi.
The chaos erupted around 1 a.m. as this 53-year-old Senegalese naturalized citizen, clad in a “Property of Allah” sweatshirt with an Iranian flag t-shirt underneath, unleashed hell with a rifle and pistol on a crowd of innocent people. He slaughtered three — 19-year-old Texas Tech student Ryder Harrington, 21-year-old Savitha Shan, and 30-year-old Jorge Pederson — and wounded 19 others in a shooting spree apparently driven rage at Iran getting its ass kicked by US and Israeli military prowess.
Desperate 911 callers screamed, “There are people dead over here—we need help right now!” as Diagne stalked the parking lot for like a deranged predator. Police responded to the calls in less than a minute. (Note: The video has been made private… click through the X post below to see video) . . .

Bodycam videos show brave officers charging into the fray, shouting commands at fanatic bystanders (many of whom ignored them) before shooting him down like a rabid dog.
Recently released footage from a neighbor’s doorbell cam shows the killer leaving his apartment for the very last time.

The FBI is investigating the shooting as a terrorist attack. While political correctness still rules the day in some FBI field offices, others remain certain the amateur-hour attack was linked to the weekend’s military strikes on Iran. With a history of mental health issues from 2022, Diagne legally armed himself, exploiting America’s freedoms he despised.
Travis County DA José Garza, one of America’s Team Soros big city prosecutors, reportedly planned to refer the officers involved to a grand jury for daring to take out the trash. After a fierce backlash from everyone up to and including Texas Governor Greg Abbott, the cop-hating Garza backed down. From FoxNews:
A progressive Texas district attorney said he will not seek charges against the Austin police officers who fatally shot a gunman who killed three people and injured 13 others in a suspected terror attack amid speculation they could potentially face a grand jury.
Travis County District Attorney José Garza released a statement after Gov. Greg Abbott said he would eventually have the final say on whether the officers should be charged or convicted in court.
“These officers are heroes, and it should go without saying that my office is not seeking any charges and would not seek charges,” Garza said. “The accounts to the contrary are false, intentionally false, and are being peddled for obvious political purposes.”
Garza’s office was the subject of criticism after it became known that the officers could potentially face a grand jury as part of a 2021 policy that all officer-involved shooting cases and serious use-of-force incidents be presented to a grand jury for review.
Austin mourns amid vigils, but this atrocity screams for tight borders and vigilance against evil infiltrators. No more PC excuses—this was a case of Islamic terrorism on American soil.
So at 35 yards. Or more. Can you do that?
Don’t we have enough mental patients here already? Why are we importing them?
We should be exporting them.
Why does the open borders crowd want to flood the United States with thousands of dark skin uneducated people???
People who are illiterate in their own language of spanish. And have no provable job skills , no certificates of training. No certificates of education.
But they do have many, many tattoos. On their faces. On there backs. On their hands and on their necks.
Like the criminals have.
