How the call settles
The FBI/DOJ or Texas law enforcement publicly concludes (or charges the case as) an act of terrorism rather than a non-terror motive
Our reasoning
NO on the research record because The FBI's May 7, 2026 findings on the March 1 Buford's/West Sixth Street shooting concluded gunman Ndiaga Diagne acted alone with no affiliation with or support from any foreign terrorist organization, and characterized the attack as 'impulsive,' driven by personal triggers tied to the Iran war. Authorities did not conclude it was an act of terrorism, and Diagne was killed by police so no terrorism charges were file.... Applied stored rule: The FBI/DOJ or Texas law enforcement publicly concludes (or charges the case as) an act of terrorism rather than a non-terror motive.
