Woman shot outside CIA headquarters

A woman has been shot after failing to stop her car outside the CIA headquarters in Virginia, according to reports.

Security guards at the Langley compound fired shots at the driver outside the agency’s building in McLean, Virginia, early on Thursday morning, CBS reported.

The woman was allegedly shot in the upper body and taken to a nearby medical facility to undergo treatment.

The shooting is “non-fatal,” police told MSNBC, and a CIA investigation is under way.

Fairfax County police responded to the incident at around 4am, providing assistance to CIA officers and coordinating traffic control, authorities told MSNBC.

It is the second incident at the CIA headquarters in recent months, after a man pulled a handgun on himself outside the building in March.

The man pointed the gun at his head and had to be talked down by police in a “barricade incident” that lasted several hours, according to ABC.

A CIA spokesman said: “There was a security incident that law enforcement responded to outside CIA headquarters.”

The intelligence agency said in an X post that the main gate at CIA’s Langley compound was closed and directed employees to seek alternate routes.

The shooting incident came after two Israeli Embassy staffers were killed by a lone gunman in downtown Washington, on Wednesday night. There was no indication the incidents were related.
