Kanye West Assaults Paparazzi
According to reports Kanye West just assaulted a member of the paparazzi at LAX...
Sources connected with the photog tell us, Kanye was on his way out of the airport when he went ballistic, attacking the paparazzo.
An eyewitness tells us, Kanye was leaving the terminal with a bodyguard and approximately five paparazzi surrounded him, snapping pictures. We're told one photog was especially aggressive -- not a TMZ photog -- and probed Kanye with tons of questions.
We're told Kanye told the man not to ask him questions, but he kept going -- and Kanye attacked, attempting several punches, and the man fell down. Paramedics and police are currently on scene.
