Story Courtesy of: Fox NewsWest and his bodyguard, who was also arrested by airport police on charges of felony vandalism and battery shortly before 8 a.m., had an altercation with the paparazzi involving a $10,000 camera, the spokeswoman said. The incident took place in Terminal 4, outside of passenger security screening.
West and his bodyguard were in custody with airport police and expected to be transported to the LAPD's Pacific Division to be booked. Airport spokesman Marshall Lowe said police were continuing to interview witnesses.
An employee at the office of West's representative at the William Morris Agency had no comment for FOXNews.com.
According to TMZ.com, a still photographer was trying to take pictures of West at the American Airlines terminal when West allegedly confronted the man and smashed his camera to the ground.
A TMZ photographer then began videotaping the scene when West's assistant grabbed the man's camera. A struggle ensued and the assistant threw the video camera to the ground, breaking it, TMZ says.
When West realized the TMZ photographer had videotaped the incident, he yelled, "Gimme that f---ing tape!"
