So, two guys in drag decide to attack the NSA ....

and shoot it out with security guards, ram a police vehicle, and basically lose. One dead, one wounded. Cocaine and a gun are found on or near their SUV. Police said that both men were dressed as women.

Come up with your best explanation of this.

No one has ever gotten smoked up and decided to steal a car, and ram an NSA guard shack.

The owner of the SUV picked up two men dressed as women in Baltimore late Sunday, sources confirmed. The three allegedly drove to a hotel in Howard County, Maryland, where they partied, sources said. Early this morning, the man woke up alone and the two men he allegedly had picked up were gone and so was his vehicle, sources said. The man reported his vehicle

The story is generally reported as "men disguised as women".

Um, didn't some lady just get kicked out of a fitness club for saying that?
