MyFox DC reports that police were involved in a shooting after a car tried to ram the gate leading into Fort Meade, Maryland. 

NBC reports that the incident started after two men disguised as women tried to gain access into the installation. After the men were denied access, gunfire broke out between the assailants and a Fort Meade guard. 

A gun and drugs were located inside the assailant's car after the incident, NBC reports. 

Citing the Anne Arundel County Police, CNN reports that one person has died and another has been injured in the incident. 

Anne Arundel County police are no longer involved in the incident as it took place on government property. NSA police are now taking the lead in the investigation.

An NSA spokesperson confirmed to WaPo that an incident had taken place by the gate leading into Fort Meade but could not provide additional information. 

“It is an ongoing investigation and the FBI has the lead,” the spokesperson said.
