"A man driving an SUV drove near the bar, put the vehicle's flashers on, pulled down his window and began shooting with a pistol, striking patrons on the bar patio and in front of the bar. The suspect then parked the vehicle, got out of his car armed with a rifle, and began shooting at people who passed by."
"There were indicators that on the subject and in his vehicle that indicate potential nexus to terrorism. Again, it's still too early to make a determination on that."
"Three people were found dead at the scene, and 14 people were injured and transported to hospitals. Of those injured, three were in critical condition. The shooter was among the dead."
A shooting occurred early Sunday at Buford's Backyard Beer Garden in Austin's nightlife district. A man drove an SUV near the bar, activated flashers, and fired a pistol at patrons on the patio and in front of the establishment. He then parked, exited with a rifle, and continued shooting at passersby. Police confronted and killed the suspect. Three people died, including the gunman, and 14 others were injured, with three in critical condition. The FBI is investigating potential terrorism indicators found on the suspect and in his vehicle, though no determination has been made. Police and emergency responders were praised for their rapid response.
