A quiet morning at the CIA headquarters in Virginia was suddenly shaken by an unexpected incident. Without warning, a vehicle sped straight toward the gate and crashed into it. Crashing into a backyard fence is one thing, but smashing into the front gate of the CIA? That’s sure to set off some serious alarms.
Given the high-security nature of the headquarters and the sensitive materials inside, the guards didn’t take any chances. They fired at the vehicle, hitting the driver, Monia Spadaro, twice. Thankfully, her injuries were not fatal, but she was rushed to the hospital for treatment.
Right now, the FBI is actively investigating what caused the crash at the CIA. One possibility they are looking into is whether Spadaro was driving under the influence. This suspicion isn’t without basis, as records show she had a previous drunk driving incident a few years ago.
In light of the situation, the CIA decided to temporarily close the main gate. They posted an announcement on X, advising any visitors to use alternate entrances for the time being.
Internet users who heard the news about the CIA incident didn’t seem very sympathetic toward the woman. Many cracked jokes, with some suggesting she might have done it on purpose to score a big payout. One person commented, “Don’t worry, this person will be paid $5 million in a couple of months.”
Others brought up a similar case, referencing Ashli Babbitt. The woman was fatally shot by Capitol Police during the January 6th breach of the U.S. Capitol. Her family recently received nearly $5 million in a settlement from the Trump administration after filing a lawsuit. As one user put it, “Shot while attempting to break into a secure area. Sounds familiar. Wonder if the family will get $5 million?”
Some users even took the chance to poke fun at the situation, jokingly asking if Monia Spadaro is a conservative, since that might give her a better shot at getting a payout too. Meanwhile, a few commenters shared personal experiences related to the area. One person wrote,
“I accidentally made a wrong turn there once, and they surrounded my car with hands on their guns. They had me roll down all my windows and interrogated me before letting me go. They weren’t exactly friendly at first, but once they figured out I wasn’t a security threat, just an idiot, they gave me directions and sent me on my way.”
