A law enforcement official tells The Associated Press that the gunman who killed two people at a bar in Texas early Sunday was wearing a sweatshirt that said “Property of Allah,” and another shirt with an Iranian flag design. The Department of Homeland Security has identified the gunman as 53-year-old Ndiaga Diagne. Multiple people briefed on the investigation say Diagne is originally from Senegal. The FBI says the shooting that left 14 others wounded is being investigated as a potential act of terrorism. The shooting erupted a day after the United States and Israel launched an attack on Iran.
