After a heated exchange with a fan in January, Kanye West will not be charged for allegedly punching him. According to reports, the issue happened around 3 AM in DTLA outside the Soho warehouse, and Ye didn’t look happy. At the start of the Video obtained by TMZ, Ye was heard screaming at a woman to get away from him. The woman who was in a bid to calm him down was later reported to be his cousin. Witnesses revealed that before Kanye was spotted screaming at his assumed cousin, he had already thrown two punches at the fan. After reviewing the case, the Los Angeles City Attorney’s office may see things from Ye’s angle.
Kanye West Will Not Be Charged For Punching a Fan in LA
According to reports from TMZ, Kanye West will not be charged for allegedly punching a fan who wanted an autograph at the wrong time. Witnesses stated that Ye punched the guy twice in the head and neck area. The witnesses believed the fan’s head hit the ground forcefully due to the impact. The autograph-seeking fan refused to get treatment on the scene. However, the court has decided that Kanye West may not be charged.
Before the incident, there were reports that the award-winning rapper had initially asked people outside the building not to take photos of him. He also went on to stop them by saying that they couldn’t relate to what he was going through at the time. Then someone replied to him that everyone goes through family stuff, and it’s okay. The triggering response may be one of the reasons Kanye West will not be charged.
After the reply by the fan, punches were allegedly thrown by Kanye, Kim Kardashian‘s ex-husband. It looked like the star was having a bad day as he was spotted in another video yelling at two women. Kanye West must have been in control of his anger.
The punching incident involving Kanye West and the fan has received a thorough review, and he will not be charged for it. The case was investigated as a misdemeanor battery and comes with a jail sentence of six months tops. Kanye West will not be charged for punching the fan as the Attorney’s office won’t be filing the case. The case won’t be filed due to no reasonable likelihood of conviction. This means that there isn’t enough evidence to convict the star.
