PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. -- Rapper Foxy Brown took a shot at the Pembroke Pines Police Department and the owner of a local beauty shop a week and a half after she spent a night in a Broward County jail.

The 28-year-old was charged earlier this month with battery and resisting an officer with violence after police said she threw hair glue at the owner of Queen Beauty Supply and later swatted an officer.

But Brown claims she was deliberately targeted because of her race and celebrity status.

"The only crime I guilty of committing is being a young, black female celebrity in Broward County, Fla.," Brown said during a news conference in New York on Monday. "And I am the victim of an overzealous police department who engaged in police brutality, and a money-hungry store owner whose primary motives are for me to pay his mortgage on his house and his children's tuition."

According to the Pembroke Pines arrest report, Brown was applying beauty products in the bathroom of Queen Beauty Supply when the owner told her the business was closed and it was time to leave. She refused and threw a 99-cent bottle of hair glue at him, the report said. Brown then spat on him as he called 911, staining his shirt, the report said.

A police officer found her in the shopping plaza and tried to get her to return to the store, the report said. When the officer placed a hand on her arm to escort her to the store, Brown swatted it away, then started swinging her arms and struggling with the officer, the report said.

The officer had to "use a takedown maneuver to gain control" of Brown, according to the report.

But Brown told a different story Monday.

"The so-called store owner barged in the bathroom while I was half exposed from the waist down using the toilet," Brown said.

The 37-year-old store owner said that isn't true and that surveillance video from the night in question would clear his name before referring Local 10 to his lawyer.

Brown also accused the Pembroke Pines Police Department of brutality when she was arrested. Police had no comment other than to say that no formal complaint had been filed.

Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, maintains her innocence and credited her strong faith as proof.

"At the end of the day, I'm a Christian, I have an irrepressible spirit in faith and I will be completely exonerated," she said.
