SALEM, Ore. (AP) — A Salem, Ore., teacher who was arrested last month after he was accused of having sex with a student was back in jail Wednesday, accused of meeting the girl at a concert.

Lt. Dave Okada said 49-year-old Michael Montgomery violated terms of his release.

The Statesman Journal reports the two reportedly made contact at the April 24 Coldplay concert at the Rose Garden in Portland.

Montgomery was originally arrested April 16, three days after he was found in a vehicle with the girl at Baskett Slough National Wildlife Refuge and she said they had sex.

Montgomery is on administrative leave from his job at Sprague High School.
