Rapper Kanye West is arrested after another scuffle with a photographer, this time in the United Kingdom.
The self-proclaimed “Michael Jordan” of rap music makes his dislike of photographers crystal clear after being “arrested on suspicion of assault following an incident at a city center club,” a police spokeswoman told BBC News.
This is the second arrest for the rapper this year after allegedly damaging a photographer’s camera at Los Angeles International Airport in September.
West was arrested early Friday morning, November 14, outside Tup Tup Palace bar in Newcastle, England, after he allegedly attacked photographer Terry Blackburn, who was trying to snap his pictures.
Blackburn alleged that West ran toward him and pushed his camera into his face, shouting, “Get the f--king camera off!”
Blackburn suffered minor cuts and bruises.
Authorities arrested West at a hotel in nearby Gateshead, however, formal charges have not been made against the rapper.
West is currently traveling around the United Kingdom as part of his sold-out “Glow in the Dark” world tour.
