Ronnie Spector: Police Pointed Guns

NEW YORK (AP) - Singer Ronnie Spector said several plainclothes police officers 
pointed guns at her and her
family and roughed up her husband last month after stopping her car.

The officers went away when they learned Spector, lead member of the 1960s group the 
Ronettes, was in the car,
she said.

"I think if it wasn't me, they would have killed us all," Spector said at a news 
conference Friday.  "If
you're not a celebrity then you're dead.  That's the sad part of the whole thing."

Spector said she, her husband-manager, Jonathan Greenfield, and her two teen-age sons 
were stopped in Harlem
by three men who jumped out of a rust-colored sedan and pointed guns at them but 
didn't identify themselves.

Spector said she thought they were being carjacked and told her husband to flee.  When 
he finally pulled over,
one of the men opened Greenfield's door, punched him in the mouth and pulled him out, 
Spector said.

Only then was the couple told their car matched the description of a car used in an 
earlier homicide, the
couple said.

Greenfield reported the incident to police, who turned the complaint over to the 
Civilian Complaint Review
Board.  CCRB officials declined to comment.

The couple said they want the officers identified and punished.
