Just two weeks after his run-in with a heckling teen in Beverly Hills, Kanye West‘s reps have reached a settlement with the accuser.
According to the New York Daily News, sources say that initially, the teenaged boy, who was allegedly assaulted by West after calling Kim Kardashian a “n***er lover” along with other insults, wanted to file charges against the rapper. But now, after having had a change of heart, the teen no longer wishes to pursue a high-profile, public trial and approached West’s legal representatives, offering to end the case if he is paid off somewhere in the range of several hundred thousand dollars.
“He cancelled a meeting with [Beverly Hills Police],” the source said, referring to the teen. “He initiated something with Kanye’s reps, an overture for money.”
Kim, 33, claims that her life was threatened by the teen, in front of a camera crew who was taping the entire debacle, when she told the boy to stop using racial epithets towards paparazzi, and he quickly turned on her, hurling insults that infuriated Kanye. According to Daily Mail, although the youngster has “no apparent injuries,” he claims West punched him up to 30 times.
