According to a recent report, Kanye West mistakenly punched the wrong man following an incident in Los Angeles where the rapper was named as a battery suspect.
The 46-year-old rapper was at the Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles on Wednesday when he became involved in a confrontation with a man whom his girlfriend, Bianca Censori, alleges assaulted her.
The new report surfaced on TMZ, claiming West punched one half of a set of twins who own numerous L.A. bars and restaurants… adding West actually punched the wrong one.
The twins are Mark and Jonnie Houston, who own L.A. hotspots such as No Vacancy, Good Times at Davey Wayne’s, Black Rabbit Rose, and Break Room 86.
West and Censori are claiming that Censori bumped into one of the brothers and that he proceeded to assault her.
Sources claim that a man bumped into Censori in the Chateau Marmont lobby, which was said to be quite busy at that time.
The incident happened quickly and the man went on his way, heading outside to sit with some friends.
Shortly thereafter, West came up to the table to confront the man, ultimately punching the man in the face.
However, West apparently hit the wrong man – the other twin and not the one who bumped into his girlfriend in the lobby.
It isn’t clear at this time which of the twins ran into Censori and which one was ultimately punched by West.
The Houston twins are said to frequent the Chateau Marmont quite a bit though it’s unclear if they’ve interacted with West before.
