The woman – who has not been identified as a fan or photographer – filmed the hitmaker from the driver’s seat as he said: “You shouldn’t have snapped at me like that.
“If I say stop, stop with your cameras!” Kanye continued before the woman suggested she film him since he’s a “celebrity.”
The response may have angered Kanye, who allegedly grabbed the woman’s phone from her hand before throwing it in the air.
What led to the altercation is unclear.
TMZ reported that he accused the woman of “following” him and has since been named a suspect in a battery investigation.
The outlet further claimed that deputies from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department called and responded to the incident “about 4:30 p.m. and received video evidence of the incident.”
West’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian was also introduced at Friday night’s game when she arrived with sister Khloe Kardashian’s ex Tristan Thompson. She was not involved in the incident and it appeared to be outside the area.
West – who shares North, Saint, as well as daughter Chicago and son Psalm with Kim – shocked fans when it was reported he had married new “wife” Bianca Censori.
