Security: Cops on the Hunt for Kid Rock After VMA Fight

TMZ has learned that the Las Vegas Police Department is on the hunt for Kid Rock after he allegedly "clocked" Tommy Lee at the MTV VMAs in Las Vegas Sunday night.

According to security at the Palms Hotel, where the awards took place, the LVMPD has asked for Rock's room number at the hotel and any leads they might have regarding his current whereabouts.

Details as to what started the fight are still sketchy, but an eyewitness at the awards tells TMZ that "Tommy got it pretty bad."

Both Kid and Lee were escorted out of the awards by Palms security moments after the altercation, caught on camera by Reuters photographer Steven Marcus, took place.

TMZ has learned that Palms owner George Maloof was questioned by police, who was overheard telling cops, "I have no idea."

According to the AP, rap producer Rich Nice was an eyewitness. He says that although Kid Rock threw the only punch that landed, it was Tommy Lee who started the fight. "It looked like Tommy Lee initiated it because Kid Rock was ignoring him," said Nice, who was two tables away. "And Tommy Lee kind of antagonized him. And then when Tommy Lee stood up, it looked a little weird, like 'Yo, what?"'

"When Tommy stands up is when Kid hit him the first time with a backhand," Nice continued. "And then Tommy Lee looked like he was trying to get at him to aggressively retaliate and then Kid Rock hits Tommy Lee again -- bong. And then security grabs Tommy Lee in a headlock and pulls him off."

46. I wish it would have been Vince Neil instead of Tommy because Vince would have kicked the crap out of that wimp Kid Rock. Kid Rock is a punk.
Vince Neil has way more class then to fall in love with Pam though. Vince banged her a few times and that was it.
Tommy and Pam have kids together though so Kid needs to mind his own business.
He can cat-call Pam all he wants.

47. I thought it was a joke when Jamie Foxx first announced the fight. TMZ how do you manage to get the stories so quickly? Sounds like they both had too much to drink. At any rate, no matter what Tommy said Kidd Rock didn't have to get physical, especially if it was over Porn Pam. Pure ignorance!!!!!

50. when everyone kept talking about it, I thought they were joking since it was probably one of the first times the two had been around each other since the Kid/Pam marriage-marriage-marriage-marriage-divorce.

51. Narcissa-

If you are going to try and make people think you are important you maywant to check your facs first. "The Sherriff", or any police officers can not enter the hotels becuase they are private property. The only way that law enforcement can enter the hotels is if the hotel asks for their assistance. If you really live in Vegas, go into any hotel and ask thier manager on duty.
