Kanye West will not face charges for allegedly punching a man in Los Angeles in January, the city’s attorney confirmed to The Post.
“After a thorough and careful review of all the evidence, our office is declining to file based on no reasonable likelihood of conviction,” LA City Attorney spokesperson Rob Wilcox said.
The Grammy-winning rapper had reportedly gotten into an argument that turned physical when someone asked for his autograph.
Early reports indicated the man was a fan and had apparently asked West for his autograph earlier in the week.
Reps for West say the man was a professional autograph broker who had been chasing the rapper for more than a day and was invading his personal space.
West grew incensed when the man asked again that night, Page Six reported at the time, which led to the confrontation.
“My client is pleased with the decision by the City Attorney’s office, which recognizes that he has done nothing wrong,” West’s lawyer Michael Goldstein told The Post in a statement.
The incident allegedly occurred in the early morning on Jan. 13, when West had been with his then-girlfriend Julia Fox earlier that evening.
Video of the scene showed the man laying on the ground after the
reported punch and West could be heard screaming at a staff member.
