The alleged incident took place while the rapper was on his way to his daughter North and son Saint's basketball game in LA.
Kanye West is reportedly under investigation after he allegedly pulled a woman’s cellphone out of her hand and hurled it away when she refused to stop filming him.
In a viral video, Ye is seen leaving for his children's basketball game when he noticed that he was being followed by paparazzi. While it's unclear whether the woman was a paparazzo or a fan, the rapper allegedly got out of his car and asked her to stop filming him. The woman was filming West from inside her own vehicle when he confronted her.
“You didn’t have to run up on me like that. If I say stop, stop with your cameras!” Kanye told the woman, who kept holding her cell to his face.
As the woman argued that she was free to film him because he was a "celebrity," the rapper allegedly snapped, reached into her vehicle, yanked the phone out of her hand, and tossed it away.
