If any person, during the occupation of the area for military purposes, enters the designated area without the permission of the officer, the person may be arrested and kept under guard by order of the officer until such reasonable time as necessary to procure the person’s arrest by the civil authorities. Any such offender is also guilty of a Class 2 misdemeanor.
