FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. — The military says a Fort Campbell soldier was charged after refusing to allow a search of his vehicle and causing a gate into the installation to be shut down.
Fort Campbell spokeswoman Kelly Tyler said the soldier, whose name was not released, refused a random search at the gate on Thursday, causing security officers to consider the man and his vehicle a threat.
The Clarksville Leaf-Chronicle reported that gate was closed for about 30 minutes.
The soldier will be charged under the Uniform Code of Military Justice for making a threat or hoax intended to cause panic or public fear and possession of a prohibited item.
