Kanye Westin team claims more than $1 million worth of clothes were stolen from his Los Angeles warehouse… and now there’s a dispute over whether or not he’ll get them back.
Ye’s chief of staff, Milo Yiannopoulostold TMZ … people from the rapper’s camp noticed that a huge amount of Yeezy GAP clothing in Ye’s warehouse went missing a few days ago — approximately 60,000 pieces of clothing worth about $1.2 million.
Yiannopoulos said the team had no idea where the clothes went, but then they noticed a Kanye fan account advertising an event on Friday in Los Angeles… where shoppers could buy a bunch of Yeezy GAP clothing for $20 each.
Law enforcement sources tell us they received a call about the alleged stolen property and dispatched officers and detectives to the Yeezy sale.
We’re told those running the event told cops they had receipts for the clothes, but cops say they couldn’t show that ALL of the clothes were backed by receipts.
However, we were told that officers were unable to seize the merchandise due to conflicting stories and because Ye had not filed a police report.
Regardless, Milo insists that all of the clothes are, in fact, stolen… claiming that Ye’s team has no record of the sale and would never allow anyone to buy clothes in bulk. Moving forward, Milo says Ye’s camp will do whatever is necessary to get the clothes back, including filing a police report… and now they’ve sent a cease and desist letter to the organizer of Friday’s sale. .
In the document, Ye’s team accuses them of falsifying records to make police believe they legally obtained Yeezy products.
What’s more… Milo believes his team has identified one of the thieves involved and says he will cooperate with the police to turn over any leads.
