At least one person has reportedly been shot and wounded and one suspect taken into custody at the US National Security Agency's headquarters. Gunfire rang out after a black SUV pulled up at the entrance to the facility in Fort Meade, Maryland. An NSA spokesman told local media the area outside America's electronic espionage agency was now secure after a "security incident".

[...] CBS News images showed the black sports utility vehicle with what looked like bullet holes in the front windscreen. It appeared to have crashed into some NSA-stamped concrete barricade blocks outside the US Army installation. NBC News said its helicopter could see police surrounding a handcuffed man sitting on the ground.
