Kanye West Battery Incident, Rapper Hit Wrong Famous Twin

The man Kanye West allegedly punched in the face was half of a set of twins who are big names in the restaurant scene here in LA – and we’re told he punched the wrong one.

Eyewitnesses at the scene at the Chateau Marmont hotel Wednesday morning tell TMZ what Kanye’s team said about what happened: Bianca herself was attacked by the man who encountered her – is completely unjustified and simply not accurate.

Here’s what our sources tell us about how this happened, from their perspective… a man accidentally bumped into Bianca in the hotel lobby, which they say was busy at the time. We were told it happened quickly, and the man continued on his way.

The man went outside and sat down at a table with friends, and we’re told that’s when Kanye approached them… to confront the man.

At this point we’re told Kanye punched the guy in the face… but here’s the crazy part – we’re told he ended up punching the wrong guy – because he’s a fucking twin brother, and his brother was right sits there with him too. So a mixture.

As for who these twins are… or so we’re told Marking And Jonnie Houston are the ones involved – although we don’t know who Bianca encountered and who was hit. If you’re not familiar, they have a ton of restaurants in LA, including many celebrity hotspots.

Some of the venues under their belt… No Vacancy, Davey Wayne’s, Black Rabbit Rose and Break Room 86… just to name a few. We are told they are visiting the castle.

Anyway, back to the night in question… our sources say Kanye left after the altercation, and the police eventually showed up. As we reported…Kanye is now one suspect in a battery reportand the police say they want to talk to him.

Law enforcement sources confirmed this story to us – and we’re told the brother Kanye took a hit – again, not the one who actually bumped into Bianca – got a one-two punch to the dome… he even got socked TWICE (allegedly).

We’ve also been told this…so far, police have been unable to unearth evidence to support Kanye’s story: that Bianca was abused and spun around by the man. We’re told the case is still under investigation.

As for what happens next, we’re told once this investigation is complete – it will be sent to the city attorney for review… although it’s unclear if anything will come of it.

We’ve reached out to the Houston Brothers…no word back yet.
