Nowitzki's Former Fiancée Now In Missouri Jail

BEAUMONT (AP) ― Dirk Nowitzki's former fiancee has been transferred from a Texas jail to a lockup in Missouri.

Authorities said Tuesday that Crystal Taylor, arrested at the Mavericks star's Dallas home in May, was taken to Missouri after posting bond in Jefferson County.

Taylor, 38, faces probation violation charges and a theft warrant in Missouri. She was charged with theft in Beaumont, Texas, for allegedly failing to pay for $10,000 worth of dental work in 2006.

Taylor has said that she is pregnant with Nowitzki's child.   In mid-June Nowitzki filed a court petition seeking custody of the unborn child -- if genetic testing proves he's the father.  Nowitzki seeks to be the sole managing conservator of the child due to be born to Taylor.

Corrections officials in St. Charles County, Mo., said Taylor arrived early Tuesday to face probation violation charges.
