Terrifying bodycam footage of Sunday’s mass shooting at a bar in downtown Austin shows cops take down pro-Iran terrorist Ndiaga Diagne after a fierce gun battle.
The video shows the deadly encounter from multiple angles in real time as officers traded gunfire with the Senegalese immigrant, who was wearing a “Property of Allah” sweatshirt and an Iran flag t-shirt.
The deadly encounter was captured on police bodycam.
One clip shows an officer with their service pistol drawn shouting out “Where is he? Where is he?” as he fires around a dozen shots toward Diagne, who was standing on a nearby street corner armed with an assault rifle.
Moments later he approaches Diagne, who is seen sprawled out on the sidewalk in front of the bar, and calls out “shots fired! Shots fired! The suspect is down” before yelling at him to “stop moving.”
Another angle appears to show surveillance footage recorded from a nearby building, and depicts Diagne calmly crossing at an intersection while opening fire at pedestrians on the sidewalk.
The soundless footage concludes with Diagne collapsing to the ground and a pair of officers approaching him to check on his condition.
At a press conference Thursday, Austin Police Chief Lisa Davis called the footage “overwhelming” to watch, and said members of the department’s public information office were “in tears” watching it in their office.
“This was a chaotic scene that was overwhelming for many,” Davis said, noting that additional footage showing the 53-year-old firing his pistol into the crowd because it’s “too graphic to show.”
Ndiaga Diagne killed 3 and injured 13 others in the attack at a popular Austin-area bar.

Davis said two victims remain in the hospital with one in critical condition.
Diagne was standing on a nearby street corner armed with an assault rifle went cops caught up with him.
The total of 19 shooting victims is an increase from the 16 cops previously reported.
Davis also released previously unheard 911 call recordings from the harrowing scene, including one where a caller is heard telling police “There has been a shooting at Buford’s on Sixth Street. There are people dead over here. There have been multiple people shot. We need help right now.”
Those killed in the attack at the popular roadhouse-style nightlife spot were 21-year-old University of Texas at Austin student Savitha Shan, 19-year-old Texas Tech student Ryder Harrington and Jorge Pederson, 30, a competitive MMA fighter from Minnesota.
Diagne was wearing a “property of Allah” sweatshirt and a t-shirt featuring Iranian symbols during the Austin PoliceDavis said the Austin PD had “no contact” with Diagne, and that his only known contact with cops was a mental health welfare check in 2022, which Davis said happened in New York.
She said the incident didn’t rise to the level of severity where committing Diange became necessary, however.
Davis said although Austin police are working closely with the FBI on determining a motive – including sussing out what the bureau previously described as a “possible nexus to terrorism” – she was “not ready to talk about” what the nexus was.
