Kanye West allegedly beat up an 18-year-old man on Monday after he heckled Kim Kardashian and hurled racial slurs at her.

CNN reports that West has been named as a suspect in a misdemeanor battery assault case in Beverly Hills, Calif., according to a statement from the Beverly Hills Police Department.

According to TMZ, Kardashian was walking into a chiropractor’s office when a guy supposedly starting yelling, at the paparazzi, “Fuck these fa**ot-ass n***ers.” Kardashian then apparently told him not to use the “n-word” and the man replied, “Fuck you bitch. Just trying to help you. Shut up n***er lover, stupid slut.”

Kardashian then called her fiance, who was near the chiropractor’s office. When she was on the phone, the man apparently yelled into the phone, “Fuck you, n***er.”

Soon after the phone call, West then walked into the chiropractor’s waiting room and punched the man who was insulting Kardashian. He said that he is looking to press charges against the rapper, according to witnesses.

West is currently facing assault charges stemming from an incident at Los Angeles International Airport after he allegedly assaulted a paparazzo and broke his camera equipment.

If the events surrounding West’s most recent assault are in fact, true, that kid totally deserved to get punched in the face.
