Oh, yeezus!
The photographer Kanye West assaulted on Friday is reportedly pressing charges against the rapper.
According to TMZ, police suspect that Kanye committed an attempted robbery yesterday when he attacked the photog (not one of ours) at Los Angeles International Airport and tried to steal his camera. The case will be referred to the Los Angeles County District Attorney as a felony attempted robbery case and not as a battery.
As seen in our video, Kanye shoved the paparazzo to the ground and yelled at him as soon as he attempted to snap photos of him exiting his terminal. Yeezy allegedly grabbed the man by the shoulders, punched him, and tried to wrestle the camera out of his hands. An X17 photographer on the scene said he even put his foot on the photographer's face. Ouch!
