Kanye West’s wife, Bianca Censori, was reportedly “battered and sexually assaulted” before Kanye West allegedly retaliated, punching the man in the face, prompting the LAPD to investigate.
As reported by AllHipHop earlier on Thursday (April 17), the LAPD reportedly named Kanye West as a suspect in an alleged battery. He stands accused of punching a man earlier this week (April 16), per TMZ.
Initial reports suggested the man pushed or grabbed Censori, leading to the alleged altercation and an LAPD battery investigation. However, West’s rep has spoken out to clarify West’s side of the story.
According to Yeezy Chief of Staff Milo Yiannopoulos, the man did much more than “grab” Censori. He called out the initial reports in a statement before shedding light on the alleged incident.
“‘A stranger grabbed Bianca’ is grossly inadequate as a description of what happened. Bianca was physically assaulted last night,” Yiannopoulos stated, per multiple reports.
“The assailant didn’t merely collide into her,” he added. “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.”
As source claimed West punched the man in the face, although the man wasn’t severely injured and didn’t require treatment.
LAPD intends to speak to West and any potential witnesses as part of their investigation. Kanye West and Bianca Censori left the scene after the alleged altercation. A day after the alleged incident, the couple was seen enjoying themselves at Disneyland.
