We heard rumors late Sunday (Oct 2) evening, that Kanye West had reportedly rushed off stage during a concert mid show due to a “family emergency” but no solid details were given. Now we know more about what happened, and it fully warranted Kanye cutting his show short.
Due to an emergency, Kanye West had to end his performance early. Please get home safely.

According to reports, Yeezy abruptly ended his show at The Meadows in New York after getting word that his wife, Kim Kardashian-West was being held at gun point in her hotel room. Kim was there attending Paris Fashion Week events with her sisters. According to E!
While overseas for Paris Fashion Week, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star was held at gunpoint inside her hotel room, E! News can confirm.
“Kim Kardashian West was held up at gunpoint inside her Paris hotel room this evening, by two armed masked men dressed as police officers,” her rep shared with CNN. “She is badly shaken but physically unharmed.”
The news comes shortly after Kanye West suddenly ended his concert at the Meadows Music & Arts Festival in Queens.
A concertgoer tells E! News that in the middle of performing “Heartless,” the rapper learned of a “family emergency” and left the stage. The venue later posted on social media with the message, “Due to an emergency, Kanye West had to end his performance early. Please get home safely.”
Wow, very scary! but we’re glad to hear that Kim is safe and unharmed. I’m quite sure that security team will be getting fired immediately after this scare. Check out the footage of Kanye leaving the stage after finding out the news.
