The Associated Press<\/a> reports that a fellow suspected to be the shooter in several incidents yesterday on the Maryland Inter-County Connector was taken into custody;<\/p>\n

The FBI believes the person in custody is responsible for shootings along Maryland highways, including one near the Fort Meade Army installation, which is home to the NSA, FBI spokeswoman Amy Thoreson said in a statement. She said no other information was available early Wednesday.<\/p>\n

A person was taken into custody in Anne Arundel County on Tuesday night, county police said in a statement posted on Facebook on Wednesday morning from a verified account.<\/p>\n

In two incidents Tuesday afternoon, someone fired on a truck on the Inter-County Connector in Prince George’s County, and one person was taken to the hospital after being injured by broken glass. Later in the afternoon and about 12 miles away, there was a report of shots fired along the Baltimore-Washington Parkway in Anne Arundel County; the NSA reported damage to a building nearby. No injuries were reported.<\/p>\n

The first shooting happened around 2:40 p.m. Maryland Transportation Authority Police say shots were fired on the Inter-County Connector and that say one vehicle was hit. One person was injured by broken glass after officers believe at least two bullets pierced the windshield. The vehicle waas driving near the area of Old Gun Powder Road in Laurel.
