Kanye West's debut performance at the NEC Arena near Solihull in the UK was tainted by a shooting that left two security guards of the venue wounded.

West was in town on the final date of his five-date Touch The Sky Tour, which ended with an appearance at the NEC Arena.

According to police the incident started when a man was ejected for entering the concert without a ticket.

The man later returned and fired four to eight shots at the security guards, striking a 45-year-old in the face, stomach and foot.

"My thoughts and prayers are with the two stewards who were injured last night," West said in a statement.

The 45-year-old employee of the venue underwent an operation at an undisclosed hospital, while the second security guard suffered minor injuries.

"Firearms were discharged and two stewards were taken to hospital with gunshot wounds. Their injuries are not believed to be life-threatening," West Midlands Police said in a statement.

Over 12,000 people attended the concert and while police have two individuals in custody, officers said they were not significant arrests.

Police are seeking a black male, aged 18-22, 5 foot 10 inches, who was accompanied by a black female.

Officers are asking anyone with information to come forward.

I hate it when fuckheads do something like that. When you don't have a ticket, you can't enter the venue. It's a simple as that. That security guard could've died because of that moron's stupidity...damn.

I'm seeing Kanye next week 8)

Hittman is not a real person. He was a computer program generated by Dr. Dre and Mel Man back in the mid 90's. When Dre started treating Mel-Man like shit, Mel infiltrated the computer and put a virus in the hittman program

I am quite liking that new Kanye West song that I am hearing on the airwaves.

Big headed cunt though.
Well she moved in ways
That kept her there in our minds for days
Weeks and months it was
I was that amazed and there she stays
Surrounded by the what-ifs and the maybes

He has a pretty universal appeal. Acquantices of mine who have no time for hip hop hum his tunes.
