Kanye West Beating Victim Scores Six-Figure Settlement
Kanye West has agreed to pay more than $250,000 to the kid who he allegedly beat up in a Beverly Hills chiropractor office earlier this month.
TMZ reports that the young man who hurled racial epithets at Kim Kardashian has agreed to the civil settlement and won’t go forward with criminal prosecution.
The incident occurred after the man called Kim a “n****r lover” and yelled other obscenities at her. Kanye burst into the waiting room and reportedly punched the victim in his face.
During settlement negotiations, the man tried to demand payment in the upper six figures, but ended up accepting around $250,000.
The D.A. has not decided whether to charge Kanye with battery, but it’s unlikely since they now have an uncooperative victim. The alleged racial slurs will also not sit well with a jury.
