Men in shooting at NSA had gone to hotel to party

Fort Meade - Two cross-dressing men who were shot at by National Security Agency police when they disobeyed orders at a heavily guarded gate were driving a car they had just stolen from a man who picked them up to "party" in a nearby motel, police said.

One suspect was killed on Monday and the other was injured, along with an NSA police officer.

The SUV's owner, who has not been publicly identified, arrived around 07:30 at the nearby Terrace Motel with the two suspects, both strangers he had picked up in Baltimore, according to Howard County police spokeswoman Mary Phelan.
