Kanye West vs. paparazzo - not again!


Kanye West Friday, November 14, 2008

Rapper Kanye West is at it again – fighting the Paparazzi one day at a time.

The Grammy Award-winning performer, 31, was arrested on Friday morning after allegedly attacking a photographer outside a Newcastle, England bar, according to BBC News.

"We can confirm that a 31-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of assault following an incident at a Newcastle city center club in the early hours of this morning," said a Northumbria Police spokesperson. "He was released without charge and no further action is being taken."

The photographer, identified as Terry Blackburn, claims West shoved his camera into his face causing flesh wounds and bruising. The paparazzo also said West was furious, yelling, "Get the f---ing camera off!"

The incident occurred at Tup Tup Palace around 1 a.m., just hours after West performed to a sold-out crowd at the Metro Radio Arena for his Glow in the Dark world tour.

Paparazzi beware! This isn't the first time the hip-hop mogul lashed out at a photographer. Last September he was arrested and released at the Los Angeles airport for smashing up a cameraman's equipment alongside his assistant.
