Ndiaga Diagne, a Senegalese national, came to America in March 2000 on a B-2 tourist visa, then became a lawful resident on an IR-6 visa in June 2006, after marrying a US citizen.

He had already been arrested at least once by that point, for illegal vending in New York City, in 2001.
He was arrested at least three times between 2008 and 2016, but this didn’t prevent him become a naturalized citizen in 2013, under Obama.
Those three arrests are sealed.
Diagne was also arrested in Texas on charges that remain undisclosed.
Sources told The New York Post that Diagne was known in New York and Texas as an “emotional disturbed person.”
Diagne applied for asylum in the US in 2016, for unknown reasons.
On early Sunday morning, he opened fire at Buford’s Backyard Beer Garden, near the University of Texas-Austin.
He killed two people and injured 14 others.
During the rampage, he wore a hoody that said, “Property of Allah,” and police found a Quran in his car.

At present, police are investigating whether the attack is linked to the joint US-Israel operation against Iran, which has already claimed the life of the country’s supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei.
Sources claim Diagne was wearing an undershirt featuring imagery related to Iran.
