He then got a key to the barracks from someone other than the barracks manager. To get out of physical training and other formations, he told people that he was an explosive ordnance disposal technician attending a top secret school. Once in the barracks, he set up a cozy life for himself.<\/p>\n<p>He invited women, who would often bring food, into the third-floor room. Other soldiers reported that he conducted room inspections and signed rooms out to new soldiers. So, this squatter successfully gained the ability to run the building he was illegally staying in.<\/p>\n<p>He also borrowed vehicles from soldiers in the barracks and filled his Snapchat account with photos from around the building.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There were reports of him leading formations around the Army post, too.<\/p>\n<p>Then, he got busted for DUI by the local police which unraveled the whole scheme. <\/p>\n<p>Well, according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fayobserver.com\/news\/crime_courts\/alleged-civilian-found-in-fort-bragg-barracks-misses-court-date\/article_b82746e8-5a29-5558-8ed9-319e15638a7f.html\">a link <\/a>sent to us by Bobo, he missed a court appearance yesterday;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Chase, 20, was scheduled to appear in Superior Court on charges of financial card theft, identify theft, larceny of a firearm, breaking and entering, larceny after breaking and entering and possession of stolen goods.
