TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — A woman accused of sneaking onto MacDill Air Force Base four times was arrested in Colorado last month after trying to get onto a military base there.

The Tampa Tribune reports that Suzanne Jensen tried to get onto Fort Carson on July 29 but was stopped by military police at the gate.

According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, Jensen was detained after asking Fort Carson personnel questions about the 10th Special Forces Group, a unit of the Army Green Berets headquartered at there.

Officials later learned Jensen was facing charges in Florida after authorities said she sneaked onto MacDill Air Force Base four times over a three-month period. So they called Colorado sheriff's deputies, who arrested her on outstanding warrants. Jensen was then shipped back to Tampa.
