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 LVPD 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 took place.

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

Story developing...

When Pam was announcing one of the performers, Tommy kept on whistling @ her. I thought it was as a joke, apparently not.

Yeah, I didn't know if it was staged or not since she kept yelling at him. I figured if it was "real," then she wouldn't have responded to his whistles. I thought she and Kid Rock has divorced anyway! Unless I missed something there, WTF does it matter to him?

TMZ update:

The cops found Kid Rock -- and they cited him for misdemeanor battery after he allegedly slapped up fellow Pam-ex Tommy Lee at the MTV VMAs yesterday.

The rap-rocker got the citation from police after they showed up to the Palms Hotel and Casino after 10 pm, Officer Bill Cassell tells the AP, and spoke to witnesses including MTV VJ Sway and rap producer Rich Nice. Cops didn't detain Rock then, and they let him stay for the show after the fight even though Tommy Lee -- who was on the receiving end of the only blows that landed -- got tossed.

The maximum punishment for misdemeanor battery is six months in jail, but Cassell says that that's unlikely in this case.

Hmmm.....and everyone thought that only Rappers acted up at award shows!

That's right, Kid Rock did start out as a Rapper.
