A security guard reportedly shot a 15-year-old boy Friday morning at the Seattle regional office of the Food and Drug Administration in Bothell.

Police Capt. Denise Langford told KOMO (http://bit.ly/Xsd0vl) it's not immediately clear why the guard fired at the boy at about 7 a.m. in the parking lot of the FDA's Pacific Regional Laboratory Northwest.

Langford says the teenager got into a car after the shooting and was found a short time later at a house. He was taken to a hospital and is expected to recover.

Langford says the guard is employed by a security company hired by the FDA.

The office is located in a suburban Seattle business park.
