West was reportedly banging on glass doors at the Boynton Beach police department lobby while yelling obscenities and homophobic slurs.

West then walked away from police and was ordered to place his alcohol containers on the ground. After complying, the police reports state that he reached for his waistband. A cop then pulled out a Taser and West “continued to be belligerent and screaming profanities and obscure rants” while he was placed in a patrol car.
