Foxy Brown's lawyer drops out after wife threat

The defense lawyer for rapper Foxy Brown was scared off her case after his wife was threatened by a mystery man in the lobby of their Brooklyn building, the Daily News has learned.

Attorney Alan Stutman, who was representing the diminutive diva on felony assault charges, asked off the case after the bizarre incident, which occurred Friday night.

Stutman's wife told police that a man she did not know got out of a silver car and confronted her in the lobby.

"How can a beautiful woman like you be beaten up?" he asked and then fled.

Brown, 28, whose real name is Inga Marchand, was arraigned on an indictment that charges her with belting a Brooklyn neighbor with her BlackBerry in July.
