The rapper formerly known as Kanye West is the main suspect in a battery investigation, Los Angeles police confirmed to CBS News on Thursday. The investigation stems from an incident that happened in downtown Los Angeles early Thursday morning, police told CBS Los Angeles.

No arrests have been made, police said in a statement to CBS News. Officers responded at 3 a.m. to the scene, which is near Soho Warehouse, a members-only club.

Police said it was a misdemeanor battery report and there were no serious injuries, according to CBS Los Angeles.

The musician, who changed his name to Ye last year, reportedly got into an argument with a man who asked for an autograph outside the club. Ye then allegedly pushed and hit the man, according to TMZ.

1. No wonder he's hanging out with Marilyn Manson and Justin Beiber lately.

Maybe he's exchanging tips on what to say at the prosecution trial? And people wonder why I don't like that guy.

5. Not to mention cozying up to pooty-poot and that Russian oligarch

with a son who’s an aspiring musician.

2. Dude didn't genuflect before asking for the autograph I guess.

3. Guy seems to have some serious emotional/mental issues.

In the past, I'd heard his name and knew he was a big-shot among his fan base, but that was about the extent of my knowledge.

Over the past year or so though, I've read some of his statements (for example, calling vaccines the mark of the beast and that Planned Parenthood was devised and run by white supremacists) that come across as wholly irrational and paranoid. To me, he sounds exactly like my brother who was diagnosed with BPD.

I hope he finds peace.
