Kanye West has been named by the Los Angeles Police Department as a suspect in a battery case after he allegedly punched a man late Tuesday night who had attacked his wife Bianca Censori, according to TMZ.

“Bianca was physically assaulted,” a representative for West told TMZ, adding “The assailant didn’t merely collide into her. He put his hands under her dress, directly on her body, he grabbed her waist, he spun her around, and then he blew her kisses. She was battered and sexually assaulted.”
