A security breach occurred at the CIA headquarters when a woman drove her vehicle towards the gates, disregarding orders to stop. Security personnel responded by opening fire before taking her into custody. The incident unfolded early Thursday morning near Washington, D.C.

The woman, a young U.S. citizen with a prior record of driving infractions, was reportedly in stable condition following the event. While initial reports didn't confirm whether she was struck by gunfire, NBC News suggested she may have been hit.

The FBI is now handling the investigation, with no injuries reported among security staff. This event followed a separate, unrelated shooting of two Israeli Embassy staffers in Washington, underscoring a tense week in the capital.
