CHICAGO – The woman known as the serial stowaway, Marilyn Hartman was arrested again at O'Hare Airport on Friday night and is now facing charges.

This time, the 67-year-old was found trying to pass through security without a boarding pass or any identification in Chicago.

Hartman was arrested and charged with a felony count of criminal trespass.

Hartman was on probation for a prior trespass incident and already is prohibited from going to O'Hare or Midway airports without a boarding pass.

She was sentenced to 18 months of probation in May after sneaking past Chicago airport security, boarding a plane and flying to London without a ticket.

The year prior, she was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport after sneaking onto a flight in San Jose, California. 

She spent about six months in jail for violating her probation after she returned to LAX and wandered the airport without a ticket.
