Kanye West is arrested and cleared in pap rap
Speaking of beating on photographers, Kanye West was arrested and cleared in an incident involving another one in England. This time, though, it seems the graduate was released without any charges.
The shooter apparently ended up with a cut on his nose after Kanye shoved him while he was taking the performer's photo outside the Tup Tup Palace nightclub in Newcastle, TMZ reports. West was arrested at a hotel in Gateshead in the early morning Friday, but cleared after a short investigation.
The pap says Kanye shoved his own camera in his face as West was leaving the club with four girls. He got a little boo-boo on his nose and called the cops about it. Of course, this same guy also apparently made a similar claim against a British soccer player a month ago, and lost out on that one as well, so you can't believe every call to the cops these days.
Make this your daily (heck, hourly) stop for a fresh serving of pop smarts and cool things from around Tampa Bay and the nation.

Just another hip-hop thug,like all the rest!
