Foxy Brown — who's on probation for assault and facing a battery charge in a separate case — had another brush with violence over the weekend. But this time, she was the victim, police said.
Four people teamed up to rob the rapper of a Louis Vuitton bag, $500 in cash and credit cards around 5:30 a.m. Saturday at Crescent Street and Stanley Avenue in the East New York section of Brooklyn, police said.
Roshawn Anthony, 23, was arrested on robbery charges in the incident, police said.
She was arraigned Sunday on charges of robbery, assault and grand larceny, a spokesman for the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office said. Bail was set at $50,000 and her next court date was June 28. She was represented by Legal Aid, which did not return a telephone call seeking comment.
But Foxy Brown told the New York Post that the robbery never happened, and she hadn't been at the location police gave, near a public housing complex.
"A lot of the time, people mistake me for someone else, or people always call in these false tips," Brown told the newspaper outside her Brooklyn brownstone Saturday.
Police said the rapper, whose real name is Inga Marchand, had indeed been attacked.
