AceShowbiz - Rapper YG has reportedly been hit with an assault and battery lawsuit by a fan.
The "Who Do You Love?" hitmaker, real name Keenon Daequan Ray Jackson, has been accused of getting his team to beat up a fan who approached him outside of the Cosmopolitan Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas in May and asked for a picture.
According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ.com, the unnamed fan claimed YG refused to pose for the photo and began to swear at him, and instructed his team to "get him" as the fan was walking away. YG's crew allegedly surrounded the man, punching him in the face and holding him down.
He also claimed that the rapper then stole his gold chain and diamond-encrusted pendant before they all fled the scene.
The fan is suing the hip-hop star for assault, battery and theft, and wants at least $250,000 (£188,000). He is also suing bosses of the hotel for allegedly having inadequate security.
