Miami, FL - Rapper Kanye West Involved in Bizarre Incident, Undergoes Extensive Reconstructive Surgery

Miami authorities are investigating a bizarre incident involving rapper and entrepreneur Kanye West that occurred earlier this week. Sources confirm that West was found severely injured near a marina after an apparent attempt to swim beneath a large yacht equipped with powerful propellers.

Initial reports suggested the incident was self-inflicted, however, police are still investigating the possibility of other factors that may have contributed.

Emergency responders rushed West to a local hospital where he underwent extensive and, according to a statement released by his publicist, "life-saving" reconstructive surgery. Due to the severity of the propeller-related injuries, multiple reports are coming out that West's appearance has been dramatically altered. One anonymous source inside the hospital staff told a reporter, “He… he looks like a manatee now. It’s… it’s heartbreaking.”

West's publicist has vehemently denied these claims, stating only that West is recovering and is grateful for the outpouring of support from his fans.

Further details regarding the rapper's condition and the circumstances surrounding the incident are expected to be released in the coming days. The police investigation is ongoing.
