    The sentences are unclear since the pronoun "she" can refer either to "Michelle" or "Mrs. Jones".

    The correct sentence to avoid confusion with the pronoun could be:

    "Michelle, who was returning from the library, ran into Mrs. Jones on the street."

    In this case, we added a nonrestrictive clause that provides additional information to the main sentence ("who was returning from the library").
