Police investigate Kanye West warehouse “crime scene” amid claims of $1 million in clothing stolen

Kanye West’s team have accused resellers of stealing more than $1 million worth of his unreleased YZY clothing line and trying to sell it for $20, as Police investigate.

On March 15, SRGN Studios and Urban Necessities announced via their social media accounts that they were opening up a “first come, first serve” pop up shop for Kanye Wests’s “unreleased YZY GAP” clothing.

It was scheduled to go ahead in LA, with “over 60 thousand units” on sale, as many customers lined up to get their hands on Ye’s highly anticipated clothing line for just $20 per piece.

However, it was soon shutdown by Police after Kanye West’s team claimed that these new YZY line goods, with a worth of over $1 million, had been stolen.

Instagram user Juliansoley was there and posted a clip with the caption: “The owner of Los Angeles apparel is accusing somebody of stealing 60k+ units of Yeezy merchandise. It is now a crime scene and the whole street of blocked off with crime tape.”

This man was Dov Charney, who has also reportedbly became the new Yeezy CEO for West’s clothing brand. Charney was seen in the clip shouting: “This has been stolen. His merchandise has been stolen, from Ye, formerly known as Kanye West.”

Police officers then approached him and asked for him to leave the area due to interfering with “ongoing investigations.” Ye has since reposted this short video on his Instagram story.
