A 23-year-old man from Greenbelt, Maryland, has been charged with assaulting Federal law enforcement officers at the National Security Agency campus in Fort Meade, Maryland.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Maryland announced that Amir Phillip Wilson, 23, of Greenbelt, Maryland, was charged with assaulting Federal law enforcement officers.
According to the complaint, on September 24, 2025, an NSA police officer stationed at a checkpoint observed a vehicle operated by Wilson approach the NSA campus in Fort Meade, Maryland. The officer saw Wilson drive the vehicle through the checkpoint without presenting the appropriate credentials required to enter the protected property.
When law enforcement attempted to stop Wilson, he accelerated to upwards of 40 to 50 miles an hour in an attempt to evade the officers. During the pursuit, Wilson’s vehicle struck two marked NSA police vehicles responding to the scene injuring one of the officers.
Wilson’s vehicle then careened into a concrete retaining wall, where it came to a stop. Law enforcement then took Wilson into custody.
Wilson is scheduled to appear for a detention hearing on Wednesday, October 1, at 10 a.m.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Maryland commended the FBI and NSA Police for their work in this investigation. The office also thanked Assistant U.S. Attorneys G. A. Massucco-LaTaif and LaRai Everett who are prosecuting this case.
A criminal complaint is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
