Cyrena Anne Quast, 35, was booked by the Wright County Sheriff’s Office on August 30, and it’s her mugshot, not her rap sheet, that took off online. Commenters kept doing a double take at how much the Saint Cloud native looks like Jennifer Lopez.
Quast was accused of stealing two double packs of power tool batteries worth around $580 from a store in Monticello, per a criminal complaint. A store employee reportedly recognized her from an alleged theft two days earlier and called police.
She reportedly admitted to taking the battery packs and was booked on a gross misdemeanor theft charge. She was released the day after her arrest, according to the Daily Mail.

Then the mugshot spread, and the “Jenny from the Block” jokes wrote themselves. “For a moment I thought it was jlo lmao,” one user posted. Another added, “In prison she’s known as Jenny from D-Block!”
Records indicate last month’s arrest wasn’t Quast’s first run-in with the law. She has previously been arrested on offenses including drug possession, DWI, fleeing police and providing false identification, along with several traffic infractions.
Lopez, the 57-year-old international superstar, has not weighed in and if she did that would be insane because why is she going care? She’s too busy trying to stay young forever.
