Foxx’s husband called 911 to report an altercation, and told responding officers that Foxx threw his video game controller, blocked him from leaving a bathroom and slapped his face, according to a police report released through a public-records request.

Police wrote that his face showed no sign of injury, however. Foxx denied slapping him, saying she did make physical contact with him, but only in an effort to help guide him out of their south suburban home. She told officers she felt that her husband called police only to hurt her, according to the report.
A spokeswoman for the state’s attorney’s office said the office did not have a comment, but passed along a joint statement attributed to Foxx and her husband.
