The service, on high alert for the anniversary of September 11 attacks, was reported to have fired 10 rounds on a suspicious boat.

President Barack Obama and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates had been attending a ceremony at the Pentagon, south of the city on the Virginia side of the river.

CNN said the Coast Guard fired about 10 rounds at the boat, which they described as a recreational vessel, after it entered a temporarily restricted zone in the Potomac.

The river separates Washington DC, from suburban Virginia, where the Pentagon is located.
