Police Fatally Shoot Driver Who Failed to Stop Outside NSA

HeadlineMar 31, 2015

Police at the National Security Agency in Fort Meade, Maryland, shot and killed the driver of a car after he refused calls to stop. Authorities say two men dressed in women’s clothing drove a stolen car down a highway exit reserved for NSA employees. The NSA says the driver failed to stop and “accelerated toward an NSA police vehicle.” Police opened fire, killing the driver and injuring the passenger, identified as 20-year-old Kevin Fleming. An officer was also injured. Officials say they found cocaine and at least one gun in the vehicle. It is unclear if the men actually intended to enter the NSA.
