West, 31, was charged with one count each of misdemeanor vandalism, grand theft and battery. Don Crawley, 33, faces two counts each of the same charges. If convicted on all counts, West could face a maximum of two years and six months in L.A. County Jail and Crawley could face up to five years behind bars. They are scheduled to be arraigned April 14 at the Airport Courthouse. The decision by city prosecutors to pursue several charges comes six months after the L.A. County district attorney's office declined to pursue felony charges. Attorney Blair Berk, who is representing West, had no comment on the city's decision to file criminal charges. A spokesman for City Atty. Rocky Delgadillo released a statement detailing the charges.
