NSA Assailants Dressed as Women: Official

Officials say one suspect is dead and another seriously injured after NSA police fired on two men trying to ram the gate at the NSA's Fort Meade headquarters in Maryland, the BBC reports. The officers apparently opened fire when the driver wouldn't follow orders and headed for a police vehicle that was blocking their path. The wounded suspect was taken to hospital, and both of them were dressed as women, an unnamed official tells the AP. The incident, which the Washington Post reports took place around 9am, happened at a gate that wasn't near any of the facility's main buildings. CNN notes that this is the second security issue affecting the NSA this month. (More NSA stories.)
