Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) confirmed with Bored Panda that LAPD officers responded on April 17, at around 12:30 am local time, to a “battery investigation” on 8200 block of Sunset Boulevard. The address corresponds to the famous Château Marmont Hotel, where Kanye fought the man who allegedly groped Bianca. “A battery report was completed,” an LAPD spokesperson told Bored Panda in an email. “We cannot confirm any suspect information.” Trigger warning: sexual assault Kanye West is currently facing legal complications after being involved in a physical altercation following allegations that someone sexually assaulted his wife, Bianca Censori, prompting “Ye” to retaliate. The 46-year-old rapper was reportedly named as the suspect in a battery report after he allegedly punched a man in the face on Tuesday night (April 16) in Los Angeles, USA, following initial reports that Bianca had been pushed or grabbed by the stranger. Following the altercation, Ye and his 29-year-old spouse reportedly took off, leaving the man behind, who was said to not require any treatment for potential injuries.

On Wednesday at 10:16 pm local time, TMZ reported that claims that Bianca had been “grabbed” were “grossly inadequate as a description of what happened” and clarified that “Bianca was physically assaulted,” the Yeezy founder’s representatives said. They added: “The assailant didn’t merely collide into her. “He put his hands under her dress, directly on her body, he grabbed her waist, he spun her around, and then he blew her kisses. “She was battered and sexually assaulted.”
— Matthew Seedorff (@MattSeedorff) April 18, 2024 Lately, the controversial fashion designer has found himself squarely in the crosshairs of the law. Earlier this month, a Yeezy employee filed a lawsuit against him for “severe discrimination, harassment, and retaliation.” The employee, Trevor Phillips, worked for Ye’s Yeezy fashion line and the now-closed unaccredited Christian private school, Donda Academy, for about nine months.

According to the lawsuit filed by Trevor in Los Angeles Superior Court on April 2, the rapper perpetuated a dangerous rhetoric “in front of the schoolchildren.” It further alleged: “Kanye started to openly discuss how he only likes to date White women. “Then addressing the two school children, Kanye told them that he wanted them to shave their heads and that he intended to put a jail at the school — and that they could be locked in cages. “The staff quickly distracted the children, and escorted them out of the room.”
Ye’s reps asserted that Bianca was sexually assaulted by the man the rapper allegedly punched
Ye threatened to punch Trevor in the face, the lawsuit alleged. The artist then had an apparent change of heart. Punching one fist in the air in an imitation of Mario’s celebratory dance in the Mario Bros. video game, Ye allegedly said that he would give Trevor “one more chance.” Bored Panda has contacted Ye’s representatives and Trevor’s lawyer for comment.
“Good for defending his wife,” a reader commented
