Shots hit Pentagon

Someone fired shots at the Pentagon early Tuesday in what security officials described as "a random event." No one was injured in the pre-dawn incident in which shots were fired into two windows at the sprawling Defense Department just across the Potomac River in suburban Virginia.

Steven Calvery, director of the civilian Pentagon Force Protection Agency, told reporters that a number of his officers reported hearing five to seven shots fired at about 4:55 a.m. EDT near the south parking lot of the Pentagon... An internal search of the iconic structure found fragments of two bullets still embedded in two windows — one on the third floor and one on the fourth. The bullets had shattered but did not penetrate the windows... Calvery said he didn't know what kind of weapon was used but that it was probably a high-velocity rifle...

He also said authorities were looking at whether the shooting was related to Monday's discovery of bullet holes in windows at the National Museum of the Marine Corps. in Triangle, Va. The museum is associated with the Quantico Marine Base, some 30 miles south of the Pentagon. A rifle is also believed to have been used in that shooting, which may have occurred during early morning hours.

In early March a gunman opened fire at a Pentagon security checkpoint, wounding two police officers. John Patrick Bedell, 36, of Hollister, Calif., was shot by police and died hours later.
