Rasheeda Ellis, who accuses the rapper of harassment, terrorist threats and verbal

abuse.Ellis,

worked for Brown and quit in June. She claims that when she attempted to collect

back pay from Brown, Brown showed up at her place of employment with two other

people, and threatened through Ellis’ cellphone."Foxy

he did not know when and where any incident may have occurred with Ellis, a New

Jersey resident.Brown,

a native and current resident of New York, stated that Jersey City police were

never involved. Brown,
