The shooter, who has not been officially named, had been on a terror watchlist
He was flagged to the FBI before he killed elite Texas cop Jorge Pastore Saturday
Three others who died were Eman Ahmed El Nemr-Nassar, a mother, Ahmed Mohamed Nassar, 35, her son and Riad Mohamed Nassar, 32, her other son
After the initial 911 call, the first police officers to arrive at the home were shot at, prompting SWAT members to respond.
As Pastore and other SWAT members made entry, they were also met with heavy gunfire.
Pastore, 38, was killed and a second officer was wounded. Police fired back, killing the gunman. The bodies of two other victims and the suspect were found inside.
Those killed in the house were set to be buried at 1pm on Tuesday in accordance with Islamic funerals.
'We encourage all to take time out of their busy schedule, attend the funeral, and pray for the deceased,' Kareem Abdi, a local Muslim leaders, said online.
'May Allah forgive their shortcomings and place them in Jannat-ul-Firdous.' (translates to paradise or garden.)
The SWAT officer, who was previously a paramedic in Florida, decided to become a cop after responding to the Parkland school shooting in 2018 where 17 kids were slaughtered and 17 others were wounded.
'He was a paramedic in Florida, and he was one of the first to arrive after the Parkland school shooting happened,' Michael Bullock, the president-elect of the Austin Police Association told the DailyMail.com.
'After that happened, he made the decision that he wanted to be part of something that worked to prevent that stuff from happening and not having to come in after it's all happened.'
The department is planning to honor the elite cop with a procession through the streets of Austin starting at 7am on Friday, following by a funeral service.
'He embodied the very best of this profession and of this department– that your job and your role is to be able to fight for other people no matter what the danger may be,' Bullock added.
'To show up to that scene, to know that other officers had already been shot at and that someone is actively seeking to harm and kill other people…with no hesitation, to go through and try to face that evil. That's the most honorable way that anyone in this profession can probably go.'
