Horry County Sherriff’sNo, it's not déjà vu, Jenelle Evans has been arrested...again.
The Teen Mom 2 star was arrested on Tuesday in Myrtle Beach, S.C. for driving without a license, E! News confirms. Evans, 23, was pulled over by the South Carolina Highway Patrol and subsequently booked at the J. Reuben Long Detention Center around 2 p.m. The MTV star was fined $237.50, which she paid and was released about two hours later.
"It was a traffic stop but then it was determined that she was driving with an invalid driver's license," a spokesperson from the South Carolina Highway Patrol tells E! News.
In typical Evans fashion, the mother of two quickly took to Twitter to clarify her latest legal run-in while assuring fans that the situation has since been sorted out.

She was trying to get to school when she was pulled over for speeding. She had her registration but didn't have her license."
Evans was driving "somewhere between 11 to 19 miles over the speed limit," Lawrence says, noting that "the officer could have charged her with driving on a suspended license but chose not to. It was a very kind thing for him to do but he did take her to jail."
She adds: "Jenelle is currently getting her certification as a medical assistance and a medical coding degree."
This certainly isn't Evans first brush with the law. She was last arrested in December 2013, when she was pregnant with her second child, following a dispute with fiancé Nathan Griffith. She also pleaded guilty to possession of drug paraphernalia back in August 2013, and she violated her probation when she tested positive for marijuana.
Evans, who voluntarily checked into rehab for drug abuse in March 2013, has also been arrested in the past for alleged possession of heroin, allegedly assaulting ex-husband Cortland Rogers and even missing a hearing pertaining to a cyberstalking case.
This is the 11th time in less than five years that Evans has been arrested.
