A Florida man who police say had an AK-47 rifle in his car has been arrested outside a northern Virginia preschool after he told officers he was headed to CIA headquarters nearby. Fairfax County Police said Wednesday the man was charged with possessing a firearm at a school after Tuesday's incident. Police said officers were called to a preschool less than a mile from CIA headquarters before midday Tuesday. According to the preschool, the man asked to use the bathroom but was denied access. The man was unarmed when police responded, but authorities said they found the AK-47, a handgun and ammunition during a vehicle search. He remains jailed.
