Kanye West hospitalized in L.A


After abruptly canceling the rest of his Saint Pablo tour, Kanye West has reportedly been hospitalized in Los Angeles.

According to People, NBC News and CNN, West was taken to UCLA Medical Center Monday to be treated for exhaustion.

Officer Mike Lopez from the Los Angeles Police Department told USA TODAY that the LAPD responded to a disturbance call at 1:20 p.m. PT Monday on North Laurel Avenue in West Hollywood. He said no crime had been committed.

LAPD spokesman Brian Humphrey said the fire department responded to "an unspecified medical aid request" in the 900 block of North Laurel Avenue. "An adult male, described as medically stable, was taken to an area hospital for further assessment," he said. Neither department could identify the person involved, citing medical privacy laws.

The incident comes after West, 39, ignited a Twitter storm Thursday by saying he "would've voted for Donald Trump" at a concert in Inglewood, Calif.

More recently, West cut his Saturday concert in Sacramento short after several songs, but not before calling out Beyoncé and addressing Jay Z: "Call me, brah, you still ain't call me. Jay Z, I know you got killas, please don't send them at my head. Just call me. Talk to me like a man," he said. The latter show left fans so upset that Ticketmaster refunded their tickets.

The 21 remaining tour dates that West had scheduled through New Year's Eve were canceled early Monday.
