Kanye West was recently charged with violence in Los Angeles, but a new allegation suggests he attacked the wrong person.
The 46-year-old rapper was at the Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles on Wednesday when he got into a fight with a man who his girlfriend, Bianca Censori, alleges physically and π eπ₯ually abused her.
According to TMZ, West allegedly hit one of the twins who operate several pubs and restaurants in Los Angeles. However, it was then revealed that he punched the wrong person.
Mark and Jonnie Houston are the owners of popular Los Angeles restaurants No Vacancy, Good Times at Davey Wayne’s, Black Rabbit Rose, and Break Room 86.
West and Censori claim that when Censori ran into one of the brothers, he assaulted her.
Just days after rapper Kanye West was named a battery suspect after an incident in Los Angeles , a new report claims he actually punched the wrong man
The twins are Mark and Jonnie Houston, who own Los Angeles hotspots such as No Vacancy, Good Times at Davey Wayne’s, Black Rabbit Rose, and Break Room 86.
However, sources believe that there is no proof to support those assertions, with TMZ’s sources calling Censori’s charges ‘completely off base and simply not accurate.’
According to sources, a man ran into Censori in the Chateau Marmont lobby, which was reportedly fairly busy at the time.
The encounter occurred swiftly, and the man continued on his way, moving outside to sit with some companions.
Shortly later, West approached the table to confront the man, eventually hitting him in the face.
However, West appears to have hit the wrong man – the other twin, rather than the one who ran into his girlfriend in the foyer.
It is unclear at this time which of the twins collided with Censori and which was ultimately punched by West.
The Houston twins are believed to frequent the Chateau Marmont, but it is unclear whether they have ever met West.
The rapper fled the hotel following the incident, well before police arrived, and officers apparently wanted to speak with West after the confrontation.
However, sources are claiming there is no evidence to back up those claims, with TMZ’s sources calling Censori’s allegations, ‘totally off base and simply not accurate.’
Sources claim that a man bumped into Censori in the Chateau Marmont lobby, which was said to be quite busy at that time.
The Houston twins are said to frequent the Chateau Marmont quite a bit though it’s unclear if they’ve interacted with West before
West reportedly punched the wrong brother two times, with law enforcement sources failing to find any evidence that one of the brothers assaulted Censori in any way
West reportedly punched the wrong brother two times, with law enforcement sources failing to find any evidence that one of the brothers assaulted Censori in any way.
An investigation is under way, and it will be sent to the City Attorney for review to see if any official charges will be filed.
Despite no evidence being found, West’s team is adamant that Censori was assaulted that night.
‘This was a physical, π eπ₯ual assault and any attempt to undermine the seriousness of what happened is repellent and vile,’ one of Kanye’s reps said in a statement.
