A woman was shot outside of CIA headquarters early Thursday after crashing into a gate, authorities say.
Fairfax County officers responded to the 900 block of Dolley Madison Boulevard at about 4 a.m. to help CIA police with traffic control, county police said.

The shooting is “non-fatal,” police said, and a CIA investigation is ongoing.
The woman who crashed into a gate at CIA headquarters has been preliminarily identified as 27-year-old Monia Spadaro, according to two senior law enforcement officials briefed on the incident via NBC News.
Spadaro is being treated for the gunshot wounds, and law enforcement agencies are investigating whether or not she may have been intoxicated at the time of the crash.
There is no known connection between the CIA incident this morning and last night’s shooting of two Israeli government employees in Washington, D.C.
CIA headquarters was the site of an hourslong standoff in March. In 2021, an FBI agent shot and killed a man outside who claimed to have a bomb, the FBI said.
