Intrusion at FBI's Pittsburgh HQ: Investigation Underway

Pittsburgh, Sep 17 (AP) A man drove a vehicle into a security gate at the FBI's Pittsburgh headquarters in the early hours of Wednesday, police reported. After crashing into the gate at approximately 2:40 am, the suspect removed an American flag from the vehicle's back seat, tossing it over the gate before fleeing the scene.

No FBI personnel were harmed during the incident, which has been labeled a "targeted attack against the FBI" by the agency in an official statement. Authorities, including a bomb squad, are actively investigating the situation as they search for the suspect.

Christopher Giordano, the assistant special agent in charge at the FBI’s Pittsburgh office, revealed to reporters that investigators had found a message on one of the vehicle’s side windows. Furthermore, Giordano noted that the suspect was not entirely unknown to the agency. "He did come here to the FBI field office a few weeks ago to make a complaint that didn't make a whole lot of sense," Giordano stated. (AP)
