Gunfire damaged a National Security Agency building in Maryland, the U.S. Park Police said.

There were reports of shots fired near the agency's Fort Meade headquarters in the Washington D.C. suburbs Tuesday, and Park Police spokeswoman Sgt. Lelani Woods said it does not appear they came from the nearby Baltimore-Washington Parkway.

A section of the commuter roadway was closed Tuesday night for investigation.

The FBI took over the case Tuesday night, but the NSA confirmed no one was injured in the apparent shooting.

Maryland Transportation Authority Police were investigating shots fired on the Inter-County Connector about 12 miles from the NSA earlier Tuesday. Police say one vehicle was hit, and one person was injured by broken glass.

Police would not say whether the shootings were related or whether the NSA was targeted.
