Police arrest Kanye West at LA airport
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Police say they have arrested Kanye West at Los Angeles International Airport on suspicion of vandalism after an altercation with a photographer.
An airport spokesman says police also arrested West's bodyguard shortly before 8 a.m. on Thursday.
Airport spokesman Marshall Lowe says early reports are that West got into an altercation with a commercial photographer and a camera valued at more than $10,000 was broken.
The incident happened before West and his manager, who was not identified, cleared a security screening at the airport.
Lowe says police are continuing to interview witnesses and West may be booked later this morning.
(This version CORRECTS that West's bodyguard, not manager, was arrested, too.)

Additional charges may be pending alleging that he tried to stuff his oversized ego into one of the overhead storage compartments on an earlier flight.

Ha! Really, though, we're all just a figment of Kanye West's imagination. When he farts, we have hurricanes. Believe it.
