A 29-year-old man was arrested March 6 after repeatedly ramming a swing arm barrier at the main entry control point of Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, Air Force officials say.
The incident, first reported by the Air Force amn/nco/snco Facebook page, took place at about 1:25 p.m., according to a base spokesperson. It comes almost exactly a month after a man gained unauthorized access to the base and boarded a military transport jet.
The man “drove into the swing arm barrier multiple times with a Ford F-150 truck,†according to the spokesperson, responding to a query from Air Force Times. An Air Force security forces airman “deployed mechanical road barriers, so the individual veered across the median and into a field. He then crashed into a fence on the base’s perimeter; the reinforced fence stopped the vehicle. "
