Federal officials said shots were reported near an exit on
the Baltimore-Washington Parkway to Fort Meade, site of the spy
agency. No injuries of NSA personnel were reported.
"We believe the subject responsible for shooting incidents on
the [Inter-County Connector], near Fort Meade Army installation
and other locations around the Baltimore-Washington metro area
in the last two weeks is in custody," FBI spokeswoman Amy
Thoreson said in a statement.
Officers found damage to an NSA building "and they are
investigating if it is damage from shots fired," U.S. Park
Police spokeswoman Sergeant Lelani Woods said.
The incident came after Maryland Transportation Authority Police
reported two people suffered minor injuries from shots fired at
a vehicle on the Inter-County Connector, a highway about 12
miles (19 km) from the NSA.
