Kanye West is currently under investigation for an alleged assault on a young man following a racial slur.
The rapper reportedly confronted an 18-year-old for calling wife Kim Kardashian a "n***er lover", according to TMZ.
Kardashian was apparently at a Beverly Hills medical center when the man initially tried to help her inside the building among a crowd of paparazzi.
He allegedly shouted racial obscenities to the press, leading Kardashian to speak out against the remarks and apparently drawing further explicit comments from the teenager.
The slurs prompted West to enter the building where he allegedly punched the 18-year-old.
It is claimed that the man has pressed charges and the police now want to speak with the rapper in a suspected battery investigation.
In September last year, it was reported that West had been charged over allegedly attacking a photographer at Los Angeles International Airport.
