I highly doubt your ability to determine nationality through a photo. What you saw was someone who you believe has the physical characteristics of an Indian. That person may or may not be an Indian. At 19 years of old from Missouri, there is a strong possibility that he is American.
The name strongly suggests he is Indian American, but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been influenced by hateful extremist ideologies.
You can't tell. I have a very distinctive Chinese name. But my parents came to the us over 70 years ago and I was born in the US nearly 60 years ago. I know many people of Hindu Indian descent who are native born Americans and whose parents emigrated to the US many many years ago. Also, I was raised in an era where there was a lot of anti-Asian sentiment so we were encouraged to be as American as we could and to minimize our own cultural past to avoid the stigma of being an alien American. And especially in an area that is conservative like Missouri, his family could have easily tried to suppress their heritage of origin.
This guy is only 19 and could easily be American and culturally completely non-Indian. There is no way to tell from a photo.

+1 shooter in Allen TX was Hispanic who was radicalized on social media by far right groups.
The shooter in Allen TX was a WHITE male with a vaguely Hispanic surname.

It's a Nazi flag. The flag has a swastika on it, obviously, but Hindus don't have such flags.
Indians are racially white.
So in other words, yet ANOTHER angry WHITE male terrorist.

Good grief…. Get out a map, dummy.
See the Caucus mountains? Where Caucasians come from? Caucasians - you know, otherwise known as white people? The Caucasus mountains are in …. ASIA!!!
What else is in Asia?
India!!!!!
Indians ARE Caucasians. In other words, they are white.
The categorization of those from the Caususus region of the world is largely archaic and no longer used. Caucasian for racial purposes now catgories those people of primarily European descent down to and including the Mediterranean.
Even if you were to use the old definition, the Caucusus region does not go nearly as far East as The Indian sub-continent:

We just went through several days of people saying, "How can a Hispanic guy be a white supremacist" despite that guy having swastikas tattooed on himself.
The original Aryans inhabited northern India. If this guy really is Indian, maybe he thinks he is an Aryan.

His last name suggests a South Indian origin, specifically the state of Andhra Pradesh. Those regions are descended from Dravidian peoples. This is just an extremely misguided young man.
