Two FBI agents have been shot in St. Louis, near riot-ravaged Ferguson, after attending a siege at someone’s home.

The agents were injured by gunfire early on Wednesday morning after racing to investigate reports of a person barricaded inside a house on the intersection of North Hanley Road and Monroe Avenue.

The shooting occurred at 3.15am but their conditions aren’t known.

The suspect is a 33-year-old man, according to Fox TV’s John Pertzborn, but it’s not known if the incident is connected to the protests happening a few miles away.

News of the shooting comes after a second night of rioting in St Louis.
