ON THE ROAD AGAIN: A 20-year-old woman with a history of using her car as a battering ram was charged last week with attacking her mother and stealing her sport-utility vehicle.

Police accused Jessica Marie Lopez, no permanent address, of entering her mother's locked apartment in the 1100 block of East King Street at about 7:20 p.m., Tuesday, grabbing her by the hair and punching her repeatedly in the face.

The  woman then took her mother's gold 2001 GMC Jimmy and drove away, according to a criminal complaint filed Wednesday with Magisterial Court Judge Mary Sponaugle.

Jessica Lopez was being sought Saturday night on charges of simple assault, vehicle theft and criminal trespass, police said.

Lopez got into trouble in February 2008 when police responded to an accusation that she had assaulted a woman at a service station at 653 Columbia Ave. and then used her blue 2000 Chevrolet Impala to ram the woman's vehicle.

Lopez surfaced again Aug. 6, 2008 when city police responded to a complaint that she had intentionally struck two vehicles with the Impala, tried to run down two men who got out  of their vehicles and vandalized a third car  in the 500 block of West Grant Street.
