The Washington Post reports an hourslong standoff between police and the man involved ended with the suspect being taken into custody. There is no indication if the man or any of the responding police officers were injured.

Law enforcement units had swarmed the area surrounding CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, after a man approached the main gate and began making threats, according to the Express.

ABC first reported the man was making threats at the gate, prompting an immediate law enforcement response.

Fairfax County had posted about a related road closure, calling the situation a "barricade incident." The county Special Operations Division had units on the scene.
