Foxy Brown accused of lying to NJ police

MAHWAH, N.J. - Foxy Brown is accused of lying to police during a traffic
stop, the latest addition to the rapper's legal woes, according to a
published report.





Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, was driving a sport utility
vehicle on Wednesday when she was stopped for talking on a handheld cell
phone and failing to stop at a stop sign, police told The Record of
Bergen County.

After a check showed the SUV's registration had been suspended, the
27-year-old rapper gave officers a variation of her real name and a date
of birth that was a year off, authorities said.

When a search for the name she gave turned up no records, the officers
asked her again for the information, and she gave her correct name and
date of birth, authorities said.

The officers then learned that Brown's license was suspended, and she was
taken to police headquarters, where she was issued seven traffic tickets
and released on her own recognizance.

She was told to appear in municipal court in Mahwah on Sept. 4.

Brown's lawyer, John L. Sampson, did not immediately respond to requests
for comment by The Associated Press on Monday night.

The traffic stop came a day after Brown was arrested on suspicion of
assaulting a neighbor in New York City's Brooklyn borough.

Police said that the two women got into a fight over the rapper blasting
her car stereo and that, when they passed each other on the street a few
days later, Brown hurled her BlackBerry device at the woman, cutting her
lip and knocking a tooth loose.

Brown is already on probation after pleading guilty to assault in a 2004
dispute over paying for a manicure.
