(The Center Square) – A woman arrested for allegedly faking her way into a Milwaukee high school is behind bars again, this time for stealing a car.
Police in Oak Lawn, Illinois arrested 23-year-old Amy Jones after they say she stole a car in suburban Milwaukee, drove to Illinois and eventually crashed the stolen car.
Jones first made headlines last month after prosecutors say she went to Rufus King High School in Milwaukee and posed as a substitute teacher.
Investigators say she taught three classes before she was discovered. Students say she talked about sex, cursed and asked one student if she wanted to be a “stripper or a hooker.”
Jones is facing charges of representing herself as a public employee and five other felony counts of exposing a child to harmful descriptions.
Jones’ lawyer said she didn’t pose a harm to anyone. She was released last week on a signature bond.
On Friday, police in Brookfield said Jones snuck into a local health club and stole a woman’s keys. Investigators say Jones then stole the woman’s truck and drove to Illinois.
Police in Oak Lawn say Jones was arrested there after she was "involved in a minor traffic crash."
Jones is now look at several misdemeanor charges, including criminal trespass to a motor vehicle, reckless driving, driving without a license and unlawful use of a weapon. Oak Lawn Police say the truck's owner's loaded gun was locked in the glovebox.
Jones could be in court as early as today on the charges in Illinois.
She is facing up to 21-years in prison on the Milwaukee fake teacher charges.
