U.S. counter-spy chief cuffs driver who rammed restaurant(Article)
Maybe only in the Washington area could you find the U.S.
counterintelligence chief handcuffing a suspect after his lunch is
interrupted by a car ramming into his restaurant and bursting into
flames.
National Counterintelligence Executive Bill Evanina was eating in the Silver Diner in McLean,
Virginia, on Wednesday when a Hummer crashed into the building and
caught fire, said a U.S. intelligence official, who described the
incident on condition of anonymity.
A video posted to YouTube shows a suited Evanina and his two luncheon companions dragging the driver away from the Hummer.
The
man is flipped over and Evanina, a Federal Bureau of Investigation
agent, kneels on his back and handcuffs him as sirens wail and flames
leap from the car.
The intelligence official said on Thursday that Evanina's two companions were a former FBI agent and an ex-CIA officer.
A
spokesman for Evanina had no comment. FBI Director James Comey called
Evanina to congratulate him, a source familiar with the matter said.
Fairfax
County police said four people were injured, including the driver. A
police spokeswoman said the man was in the hospital and no charges had
been filed.
A spokesman for Silver Diner said in a
statement the driver was a former employee. McLean, the site of the
incident, is home to the Central Intelligence Agency headquarters.
As
the National Counterintelligence Executive, Evanina is the head of
counterintelligence for the U.S. government and chief
counterintelligence adviser to the director of National Intelligence.
