An armed man was shot by FBI agents Monday after a standoff of several hours at the entry gate to the CIA headquarters, the federal investigation agency said.
The unidentified man was prevented from driving past the initial gate into the CIA's sprawling wooded compound just outside Washington early Monday afternoon.
Security personnel reportedly tried to negotiate with the man to surrender for several hours.
The FBI said in a statement that the individual "emerged from his vehicle with a weapon and was engaged by law enforcement officers."
"The subject was wounded and has been transported to a hospital for medical attention."
