Putin's reach apparently extends into the DC suburbs as well. Kinda spooky to think a head of state is whacking DC/MD/VA residents on an as-needed basis.

ADELPHI, Md. - Police are investigating a shooting that wounded a prominent intelligence expert.

Fifty-three-year-old Paul Joyal was shot Thursday night outside his house in the 2300 block of Lackawanna Street in Adelphi.

Joyal is known for his expertise on intelligence and terrorism and his contacts in the former Soviet Union.

He has also been a long-time critic of the the government of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The shooting came four days after he told "Dateline NBC" that he believes the Russian government was involved in the fatal poisoning of former KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko in London.
