Kanye West pleaded not guilty Friday in a Los Angeles court to misdemeanor vandalism, battery and grand theft stemming from a scuffle with paparazzi at Los Angeles International Airport on Sept. 11. West, 31, was not present in court, but his lawyer, Blair Berk, appeared on his behalf. West's road manager, Don Crawley, 33, who was charged with two counts of each of the above crimes, also pleaded not guilty through his attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley. Eight months ago, the two were arrested for the altercation while attempting to catch a flight to Honolulu.
