Kanye West has been charged with misdemeanor battery and attempted theft, following an alleged scuffle with a paparazzo at Los Angeles International Airport in July.
According to CBS News, the brawl between the rapper and videographer, Daniel Ramos, was caught on video, which showed West accusing Ramos of trying to provoke him for money.
