The other night Solange Tweeted about a run in with Miami police, accusing them of pulling a weapon on her [click here if you missed that].
Because it was Twitter there was only so much Solange could say about the incident but now both sides of the story have come out...
From E Online
"Never once during the incident did I even raise my voice," Knowles tells us. "I feel very strongly about standing up for myself when something is wrong, and am very disappointed in the way that the Miami [Beach] Police Department has handled this case."
Given the "sequence of false statements" made by police in the matter, "it is necessary to shed some clarity and tell her side of the story," Knowles' rep tells E! News.
She says that Knowles and two friends went to a club, where she somehow obtained a large balloon that they planned to give to a pal's kid the next day.
They cabbed it to another night spot, where the bouncer informed them that they couldn't take the balloon inside.
"They decided to go across the street to deflate the balloon, where they encountered two police officers who had casual, light-hearted conversation with them," Knowles' rep states. "One officer pulled out a switchblade and threatened to pop the balloon.
They felt it was inappropriate, but the turning point happened when he then took out the switchblade a second time with the blade open and said to them, 'I don't find the humor in this, anymore.' The blade was less than a couple feet away from Solange and her friends."
The officer proceeded to "forcefully" ask them to move, gesturing that they cross the street though there was oncoming traffic, the rep continues.
"Solange then asked the officer what was it that they did wrong, and he forcefully responded again to move," she told E! News. "When a taxi pulled up, they got in and headed home. Solange made a series of calls to report the incident and was told to be prepared to be arrested when she came in to report the incident if her story was false. Solange simply wanted to report that the officer pulled out a weapon, when she had done nothing illegal, disruptive or belligerent."
"Solange is actively filing a report and has not yet decided on further legal action," her rep concluded.
The MBPD previously said that a 5-foot-banana-toting Knowles was the one who became unruly with two off-duty police officers, who then guided her across the street to calm her down. They say that she had been loudly complaining that she was turned away from the nightclub for racial reasons.
"The whole entire incident was about the fact that she was not allowed in a club," Officer Juan Sanchez told E! News. "And when she became abusive, she was pulled to the side. There was no mention of a gun. Considering it might be an internal investigation, I can't tell you much other than that."

The only issue I want answers to is her upbringing, what went wrong?
Open up about that and teach the people, Forget that natural hair crusade, crusade on not going wrong with your kids.
Wha? I don't even get this story?
I mean, what does this even mean?:
-"They decided to go across the street to deflate the balloon, where they encountered two police officers who had casual, light-hearted conversation with them," Knowles' rep states. "One officer pulled out a switchblade and threatened to pop the balloon.
They felt it was inappropriate, but the turning point happened when he then took out the switchblade a second time with the blade open and said to them, 'I don't find the humor in this, anymore.' The blade was less than a couple feet away from Solange and her friends.'"
They were all speaking in a light-hearted manner...then one of the cops pulled out a switchblade and "threatened" to pop the balloon, Solange and co. got skeeved out by, it, the cop did it again:
"...and said to them, 'I don't find the humor in this, anymore.' The blade was less than a couple feet away from Solange and her friends.'"
Again, what??
Solange, two pigs, a switchblade, and a big ass balloon...
...know what? Somehow, it's very believable..
I thought this heffa said a Cop pulled a gun on her? How can you go from a gun to a switchblade ... Unless the cop was mexican, then I understand
I hope her pussy looks like that , I like girls who don't shave.They walk around the house with bikini panties on, them lil' wild hairs be sproutin' out on the sides.
Praise JEe-SUs
Once again, what?:
“They cabbed it to another night spot, where the bouncer informed them that they couldn't take the balloon inside.
‘They decided to go across the street to deflate the balloon…..”
…and then (last sentence of quote):
“The MBPD previously said that a 5-foot-banana-toting Knowles was the one who became unruly with two off-duty police officers, who then guided her across the street to calm her down. They say that she had been loudly complaining that she was turned away from the nightclub for racial reasons.”
Um, either the person who took the statement was drunk at the time of recording or someone can’t even remotely get their story straight.
Solange lay the fuck off of NyQuil!
She is crying about an inflatable banana!!! GTFOH---- I see Beyonce and her family lock her ass in the basement too long!
----------------
As dlisted.com stated:
A revolution is brewing deep under the basement between a young black mother with a giant inflatable banana friend and the RACIST police officers in Miami Beach who just won’t let a young black mother party with her giant inflatable banana friend! It all started when Beyonce, who is too busy these days barking at the House of Derriere sweat shop workers to bedazzle those pregnancy pantaloons faster, accidentally left the basement door open and out crawled Solange and her banana friend with a look in their eyes (or in her banana friend’s case, his “blow hole”) that said they were ready to paint the town with trouble. Before you wonder why Basement Baby’s best friend is a giant inflatable banana, I should let you know it was either the banana, one of Kelly Rowland’s crusty wig caps or a sculpture of her son Juelz she made out of moth balls. Yeah, your choices for a best friend are limited down in the basement.
TMZ says that on Sunday, Basement Baby and her banana friend made their way to Club Cameo in Miami Beach and tried to get in. They would not let Basement Baby’s banana friend in and told her she had to leave that bitch on the curb. Now, Basement Baby reads a lot of old Life Magazines down in the basement so she knows that if she left a giant banana alone on the streets of Miami Beach, some drunk slut whore would fuck it right there or Tina Knowles would snatch it up and turn it into another skirt for her precious Beyonce. Basement Baby couldn’t let that happen so she flipped the uppity bitch switch.
When the cops showed up, Basement Baby told them that the club refused to let her in because she’s black and not because she’s carrying a gigantic banana friend with her. The cops say they took Basement Baby across the street to calm her down. Basement Baby says that when the cops took her across the street, they pulled out a knife and tried to murder her gigantic banana friend!
Basement Baby hopped on her Twitter and let it be known in so many words that this would never happen to a young white woman with a banana friend:
I have literally had my last leg with discriminating police! Miami police department will be notified.
A police officer just pulled a weapon on me…. I have done NOTHING illegal, against the law, or anything of the sort.
I am simply tired of police using arrogance, ego and authority as an offense.
I’m only tweeting this to raise awareness. I could have left quietly, but I am sick & tired of this scenario being played over & over again.
I’m ok. I’m safe & sound at my apartment. I’m just beyond frustrated with the system.
It is time to do something about it. I am a mother raising a young black child in America. Im going to die trying!
Been on the phone for the last 20 minutes reporting this incident. Yes, I have the officers name. Yes, I have the location.
Scare tactics don’t WORK.
I’m with Basement Baby! I’d tell her to raise a fist with me, but I don’t want her to hit one of the ceiling tiles and wake the asbestos. In this day and age, we should be able to get drunk with our banana friends in a Miami club and walk the streets with them without some RACIST cop threatening to pop ‘em to death. We’re going to fight! It’s what our foremother, Chiquita Banana, would want. If you’re with us, take to the streets when you hear our march.
GO LOOK AT THE VIDEO:

LMAO @DLIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They told the dam truth!
Solange is a fucking clown. Does she have any firends? It must be sad----to have a sister liek Beyonce and get no amount of attention!
"I hope her pussy looks like that , I like girls who don't shave.They walk around the house with bikini panties on, them lil' wild hairs be sproutin' out on the sides.
Praise JEe-SUs"
and
"I thought this heffa said a Cop pulled a gun on her? How can you go from a gun to a switchblade ... Unless the cop was mexican, then I understand"
------------------------------
Okay...dead________.
She is so ugly. It must suck to have an older sister who is taller, prettier, more talented and who your parents put on a pedestal. I feel sorry for her. I am one of three sisters and our parents treated us all the same and helped us all find our own ways to shine. Solange was obviously left to her own devices and then thrown a bone with her career.
Just like Britney Spears' little sister. These poor kids are probably completely ignored while mommy and daddy groom the star.
@12:53 Wassup with dudes shaving like they are getting ready to wear a bikini. Dudes are now getting Brazilian waxes? Where are the real men?
This seems suspect. She needs to just come out with I was intoxicated and there was some miscommunication and move on...
Solange, just hush, sugar pop.
Ballons, Clubs, Switchblades...You sound dumb.
she is so not cute!! and neithter is bey kid to be with jays genes!!
GO HERE....

Basic Bitch #1!
Beylacefront is so ashamed of this clown.
The plot thickens...
This bitch is bad. The ugly girls know how to fuck. I would eat this.
so they were playing ....?,your in the street and an officer of the law approaches you,with an open knife and proceeds to use his authority accompanied with the open knife.....this coupled with the fact that you know Solange an friends were drunk. Anyway,1:49 my Aunt used to say Ugly Boys know how to fuck....girls just have to look pretty.
The only issues Solange has is being the ugly duckling out of the group. I mean poor thang, she looks just like her ugly ass pop eyed dad. SMDH
see, you shouldve had yo afro wearing ass at the VMA's, supporting your pregnant sister.. damn "homie the clown" lookin ass chile!
Solange.....good luck with all this.
Not for nothing, I think you look better with a half bald because you are soooooo ugly and this hair style is NOT helping.
She look just like Orlando Jones. I mean she could play his stunt double
beegee - cosign
she is cute to me. some of yall need to show your pics.
^^^^ You know damn well she looks like a man straight out of rehab. Stop playin
They told the bitch she could not bring a huge banana into the club, she start a loud scene, no gun was pulled on this bitch.
SOLANGE THINKS SHE IS ENTITLED, FUCK HER.
TELL THE BITCH TO COME AROUND THE "REAL PEOPLE" WHO HAVE GUNS PULLED ON THEM BY THE POLICE.
SOLANGE WANTS ATTENTION, NO TALENT, NO LIFE
@ 2:56
Orlando jones.... That's Cold as hell but I can see it with the eye, got those Bugs bunny Peepers
She looks like tracey ross's inbred sister
You folks can clown all you want. These fucking PIGS are something else and they will twist and turn shit on you in a heart beat and will stick together to the end to discredit the person who is filing a complaint. They didn't know who she was and they thought it was regular black folks If she had mentioned who she was it would have been a complete different treatment because they would have anticipate the coverage the incident is now getting, but Solange seems like she is down to earth and don't like flashing her status. Black folks need to stop been so superficial and look inwards at a person for a change. Everyone of us have something physically that we don't like, so for folks to be calling her ugly that's a far strech because beauty is different for everyone. Embrace your brothers and sisters motherfuckers!
@ 210 PM
..yes girls can be pretty, but ugly girls bring that thunder!!
Beyaki is so fucking greedy! She sucked up ALL the talent from this carrot top looney!!
@ 4:11 she sucked up all the good looks too.
sideshow bob.
so much for everything light is beautiful that is one ugly beast.
Solo, you're too foine, baby.
@ 1:00
They say guys shave because it makes their dicks look bigger like those dudes in porn,not that I actually look at those dudes, I'm just passing info along.
"The MBPD previously said that a 5-foot-banana-toting Knowles was..."
Just that much made my day. No need to read the rest.
Anyway, Solange must have been at least drunk for things to reach to get that serious.
@3:45 PM
Cosign. A lot of police officers lie, even when they are on the stand in court. This yt video opened up my eyes to how much the police lie. And this is from two white guys.

Why did'nt she just peel the banana ballon to let the air out wherever she was! Them this dumb shyt would not have gone any further. This is the stupidest story I have read since 1st grade!
I wanna SKEET right between that part in her head!
She mad once again cause Beyonce upstaged her... she got married THEN had the baby... Solange needs serious counseling.. bitch one pair of your shoes could buy 60 giant banana's why take that giant shit and tote it around town in the first place... dumb ass attention seeking idiot...
I do not understand what Solange is trying to say. I guess this is what happens when you are an illterate fool with no education. You clearly can't express yourself, and you make yourself sound very ignorant. But what can I say Solange and her sister Beyonce are some dumb, uneducated sounding folks. I see Money can't even buy these ignorant sisters intelligence, and gracefulnes, what a shame! Peace!
@4:41 U can't fake the funk. If it walks like a duck and quake like a duck, IT'S A DUDE! Shaving is not going to fake a midget for a giant! LOL!
yes Schlong the police are tired of you 2
I would never believe nothing a policeman says, I can't believe yall siding with the police.
Just because you hate Solange, lets not be stupid. As a black person, how could yall believe anything they would say??
If I was a rich & had everything like Bey, I would embrace my little sister & make her feel special instead of acting like a selfish idiot 24/7.
This ugly ass useless bitch looks like Orlando Jones. Fo real!
Will she release a porn already!
Can you imagine her sucking yo' dick and looking up at you?!?!
Her and brandy, Imake them heffas keep their eyes closed.
A rebel without a cause. This is her way of trying to be down with the people. Her only struggle is being Beyonce's sister.
@6:02 PM
"This ugly ass useless bitch looks like Orlando Jones. Fo real!"
Wow. Sad but true.
That was the first gift for her nephew or niece...
You all owe me a new Sprite....why did I go and look up Orlando Jones and DAMN IT if she dont look just like him!!!!!!!!! Solange honey, change your hair and do something with those eyebrow..... maybe thats the problem.
*kanye shrug*
What the fuck mann
Sooooo....she's only 5 feet?!
This bitch crying like she has a Boys In The Hood moment. It was a switch blade bitch not a shot gun.
Well I guess everybody suppose to boycott Miami because this is beyonce sister? You ain't seen nothing yet when they get ready to show Beyonce what they think of her, she is really going to wish she was born Latino! I guess Daddy Knowles ain't raising sand because it wasn't bey, basement baby gets no luv I see why she acts up its hard being the other child that nobody wants to talk about!
....The End
She is lying like shit. Noooooooo police officer who want's to keep their job will pull a gun, switchblade, tazer or whatever on someone who is simply letting the air out of a baloon. She popped off at the mouth, they felt threatened, and whatever happened, happened.
All that money, she would have already been sued MBPD IF they caused her harm. But I don't believe they did. And, neither will a judge (believe that bs). Which is why she is thuggin' it out on twitter, instead of in a court room She wants to share her sister's shine.
I know we crack on Solange and all but I believe her..shit I believe anyone over a cop!
GTFOH they did that shit!
Is that another AFRO under her armpit?
Is her hair shaped like a heart or a butt crack? It's clearly one or the other

Lord help us all.
I know people who have been beaten by police for nothing. I've been witness of police harassing my brother for nonsense. I find it a bit offensive that she's overreacting. It sounds like the cop is joking with her about the balloon and she overreacted.
