Rapper Foxy Brown is in trouble with the law again - she has been arrested in New York. The hip-hop star was taken into custody on Wednesday (21Jul10) for allegedly violating a protective order.

TMZ.com reports one of her neighbors had an order requiring Brown, real name Inga Marchand, to keep her distance - and she allegedly ignored it.

Brown celebrated the second anniversary of her release from New York's notorious Rikers Island prison in April (10).

The rapper served eight months behind bars following her conviction for fighting with two manicurists. (KL/WNWCZM/KD)
