Kanye West is ‘suspect in battery investigation’ after he allegedly threw woman’s cellphone

Kanye West has reportedly been named a suspect in a battery investigation after the rapper allegedly snatched a cellphone belonging to a woman and threw it.

According to a social media video, West, 45, was en route to his daughter North and son Saint’s basketball game in LA when the alleged incident occurred.

The rapper, who seemingly suspected he was being followed by paparazzi, is seen exiting his black Mercedes-Benz to allegedly confront the female in her vehicle.

His new ‘wife’ Bianca Censori was seen in the passenger’s seat of his car and did not follow the Grammy Award-winner.

The woman – who has not been identified as either a fan or photographer – filmed the hitmaker from the driver’s seat as he said: ‘You didn’t have to run up on me like that. 

‘If I say stop, stop with your cameras!’ Kanye continued, before the woman suggested she was within her rights to film him because he is a ‘celebrity.’

The response may have angered Kanye as he allegedly grabbed the woman’s cellphone from her hand before tossing it into the air.

It’s unclear as to what led to the confrontation.

TMZ reported that he accused the woman of ‘following him’ and has since been named a suspect in a battery investigation.

The outlet further alleged that Ventura County Sheriff’s Department deputies were called and responded to the incident ‘around 4:30 PM and were provided video evidence of the incident.’

West’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian was also present at Friday night’s game as she arrived with sister Khloe Kardashian’s ex Tristan Thompson.

Kanye’s alleged altercation was said to have taken place near the sports facility. 

West – who shares North, Saint, as well as daughter Chicago and son Psalm with Kim – shocked fans when it was reported earlier this month that he had married new ‘wife’ Bianca Censori.

His divorce from Kim – whom he was married to for nearly seven years – was finalized in December but the former couple were declared legally single this past March.

Page Six reported that it wasn’t the only time West asked to be left alone on Friday. 

The publication noted that after he returned to his vehicle, he then stopped in front of a group of paparazzi who had been recording the entire ordeal.

‘You want me to be running up on your kids’ games like that?’ the superstar asked a pap, who then replied, ‘There’s a hundred of us.’

Ye then pleaded, ‘Everybody needs to stop when I see my kids. If I need to see my kids, you can’t photograph me. It’s called human rights.’

He was clad in all-black and his car was positioned in front of a gold-toned SUV
