The unidentified driver went past security barrier at the Naval Air Station Corpus Christi's in Texas before crashing the car. He exited the vehicle when it caught fire and begun attacking the guards.
Security officials exchanged fire with the man who was killed on the scene.
The grey Ford Edge car used during the incident was apparently stolen as it was reported by a woman 30 min before the attack. She was pumping gas at a local convenience store.
