Amanda Bynes: I'm suing NYPD over "mistaken arrest"

Amanda Bynes has taken to Twitter to speak out about her recent arrest.

The actress was arrested Thursday after allegedly heaving a marijuana bong out the window of her 36th-floor Manhattan apartment. She's been charged with reckless endangerment, attempted tampering with evidence and unlawful possession of marijuana.

"For once and for all, this is the last thing I'll say about the mistaken arrest," the 26-year-old wrote in a lengthy message posted on her Twitter page. "I'm suing NYPD for illegally entering my apartment, lying about drugs on me and lying about me tampering with non existent drug paraphernalia, then I'm suing for being put into a mental hospital against my will, then locked up overnight for coming home after a facial and working out with my trainer like the good girl that I am."

Bynes went on to say that she's allergic to alcohol and drugs and that she's also suing her apartment complex for lying about her smoking in the building.

"I'm free forever! You can't lock up an innocent person!" she added, ending the message with: "Look forward to seeing me in music videos! I'm getting in shape and getting a nose job! I'm looking forward to a long and wonderful career as a singer/rapper!"

This isn't the first message Bynes has posted about her arrest. On Saturday, she wrote that she was "sexually harassed by one of the cops" who arrested her. Internal Affairs officers said they are looking into the actress' allegations.
