Rapper Foxy Brown arrested for tossing BlackBerry at neighbor
Rap artist Foxy Brown was arrested on Tuesday for assaulting neighbor Arlene Raymond with her BlackBerry.
The Associated Press reports the incident started on July 30 when Brown, 27, drew complaints from Raymond for playing her car stereo too loud.
Apparently one to bear a grudge, Brown ran into Raymond a few days later. The meeting was not friendly. I can say this because, as the AP reports, “Brown hurled her BlackBerry at her [Raymond], cutting her lip and knocking a tooth loose.”
An “inconvenient tooth?” Sorry, readers, I am a bit crazy from the summer heat and just couldn’t resist. Heh.
Brown has been released on $50,000 bail. Chaz Williams, her manager, says the charges are false.
You Foxy. Time for anger management classes - uh- again.
