Kanye West‘s legal wrangle with L.A photographer Danny Ramos has drawn to a close following a scuffle with the member of the paparazzi at LAX airport last July.
The hip-hop star had been charged with criminal battery and attempted grand theft, with West’s defence previously arguing that the rapper was simply trying to prevent Ramos from photographing him during the incident.
The subsequent court hearing took place yesterday, with West adjusting his plead to no contest. He will now face two years probation, 250 hours of community service and a 24-session anger management course.
