CIA security officers had been negotiating for hours when the person got out of a car holding a gun and was shot by FBI agents.
A man who tried to drive into CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, on Monday was shot by FBI agents after an hourslong standoff, officials said.
Two law enforcement officials said the intruder tried to drive into the CIA facility without access at about 6 p.m. ET, and was stopped by armed guards who operate a series of gates. CIA security officers had been negotiating with man and after he repeatedly refused to move, a decision was made to try to push the car out of the way.
A short time later, he got out of his car and brandished a gun before being shot by FBI agents. One of the officials says the person claimed to have explosives, but law enforcement officials have not said whether he actually did.
According to the two officials, the man is mentally disturbed and has who has tried repeatedly in the past to get into the CIA campus.
The man, whose identity has not been released, was transported to an area hospital, the FBI said. The extent of his injuries was not known.
"The FBI takes all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members seriously. The review process is thorough and objective, and is conducted as expeditiously as possible under the circumstances,” the bureau said in a statement.
A CIA spokeswoman said earlier that they were "addressing a security situation just outside the secure perimeter of CIA Headquarters by our main gate. Our compound remains secured, and our Security Protective Officers working the incident are the only Agency personnel directly involved.”

The CIA uses the FIB for security?
He heard they hired people with “diffuse anxiety disorders” so he was just looking for a job.

I hear the CIA is hiring mentally disturbed people these days—they should have just given him a job:

I guess he muffled the interview.
Can the CIA have a spokesman? or only a spokeswoman or spokesperson?
CIA needs to clarify whether the spokeswoman is cisgender and/or intersectional.
This is critical information for the American people to know.

I’m thinking all the Jason Bourne types have retired from the CIA, since they have to use the FBI for stuff like this.
You may have left off a few (or many) categories. It’s all so dang confusing!
More likely than not, since it was an hours long standoff in the DC area, the FBI had someone dispatched to the scene but it's really unlikely the CIA headquarters doesn't have a whole lot of armed police with federal law enforcement authority. Regardless of who actually shot, the FBI probably agreed to take the "heat" on this shoot because the paperwork is cleaner and they'd do the follow on investigation anyway.
I am still learning this new creepy language, but “intersectional” is a really cool term that covers just about everything.
I am uniquely qualified for coping in today’s world, because in my younger days (decades ago :-) ) I did volunteer work at an insane asylum!
Good, I guess they just shot the gun out of his hand. 😁
That could be anywhere West Coast
The only hire Jason Bourne A Woman types now.
Now hold on there. The straw in that Tommee Tippee cup looks extremely dangerous.
