Williams was arrested in the 6500 block of South Woodlawn Avenue at 5:30 p.m. Sunday and the charges were approved at 7:30 p.m. Monday, according to the report.
Williams allegedly went to her former professor’s South Side home Sunday at 10 a.m. and police were contacted after she apparently caused a disturbance.
