Amanda Bynes was not touched inappropriately during her Thursday arrest, contrary to claims the actress made on Twitter, the New York Police Department said in a statement Tuesday.

“Internal Affairs investigators have found no evidence to corroborate Ms. Bynes’ allegations,” the department said in a statement. “To the contrary, a credible civilian witness who was with the officers throughout told investigators that none touched Ms. Bynes inappropriately or otherwise engaged in misconduct at any time.”

Bynes was arrested Thursday after police were called to her New York apartment after reports that she was smoking marijuana in the lobby. She reportedly later threw a bong out the 36th floor window of her apartment. Bynes has said the item was "just a vase" and her attorney pointed out in court that no bong was found.

In a tweet sent on Saturday, Bynes accused responding police of sexually touching her, saying one "slapped my vagina."

Bynes was taken into custody and released Friday morning. She is due to return to court in July.
