US rapper Foxy Brown claims police dragged her out of a toilet with her pants down in the beauty shop where she was arrested earlier this month (FEB07).

The 27-year-old, real name INGA MARCHAND, was arrested on suspicion of battery and violent obstruction following an alleged disturbance in the Florida store on 15 February (07), and was disgusted at how officers treated her.

She told the New York Daily News, "I was exposed from the waist down on the toilet.

"The only crime I'm guilty of is being a young black woman. I had to get dressed in front of a total stranger."

Brown denies spitting on shopkeeper HAYSSAM GHONEIM and resisting arrest, and claims she is "doing excellent in anger management".

The hip-hop star was sentenced to three years probation in October 2006 for assaulting two manicurists at a New York nail salon in 2004. She was also ordered to undergo regular drug testing and attend anger management classes.

In December (06) Brown was summoned to court accused of breaking the rules of her probation and told she could face a year in jail if she continued to do so.
