“LAPD was notified, responded to the location and transported the victim to a local hospital for medical attention. A police report was taken by the Los Angeles Police Department and the investigation is ongoing.”The case has been transferred to the Los Angeles Police Department’s Robbery-Homicide Division for investigation as is standard procedure. Police suspect West committed an attempted robbery when he hit the photographer and attempted to take his camera. Prosecutors will decide which charges will be filed.
