Authorities were investigating an unrelated matter downtown on Monday morning.
Police spoke to a woman who they said refused to give them her real identity. Officers detained her while looking through police records, and learned she was wanted for not showing up to court.

Then while in custody, investigators said she gave them different dates of birth.
Police said they learned her real name and date of birth and determined she had provided a fake one while she was arrested last month and in September.
The 39-year-old woman was held for a bail hearing on Tuesday.
