Kanye West may need to avoid flying into LAX from now on, since he hasn't had the best of luck at the airport. Thursday afternoon, the West family were greeted to the usual fanfare and paparazzi blitz as they departed their flight in Los Angeles. Unbeknownst to the rapper, there was one eager attention seeker that wasn't looking for a candid picture, but to serve him legal papers.

According to a TMZ video that captured the entire event, Kanye, Kim Kardashian, and North West were returning from a goodwill tour around Armenia and the Middle East. As they exited the airport, Yeezy began to sprint towards the entrance to escape the media, while holding onto North. Unfortunately, in his mad dash he never saw a man following him or recognized that the serious stranger was calling his name. As Ye entered the black SUV, the brave process server saw his chance and laid the papers on one of the seats. The server risking life & limb was all for naught though, as you can see his served papers being thrown out of the vehicle at the end of the video. 

Kanye West is the latest star to be served in a public this year, following Tyga​'s example from less than a month ago. There have been no details given about the nature of the lawsuit, but we will continue to cover the situation.
