Comedian Dave Chappelle was tackled on stage Tuesday by a man who was reportedly armed with a gun and a knife. Chappelle was not harmed during the incident and later joked that it “was a trans man” who rushed the stage.
Chappelle was performing at the Netflix Is A Joke festival in Los Angeles at The Hollywood Bowl when a clearly deranged person managed to lunge into him.
The guy was reportedly quickly detained and by all accounts had the shit kicked out of him by Chappelle’s entourage and Chappelle himself.
Chris Rock, who had performed earlier, came out and quipped, “Was that Will Smith?”
GRA: In state of mind—yes.

The attacker is lucky he was not shot dead. Had the pistol replica. Someone seeing that and armed could have justifiably shot the attacker in an instant. Too hard to play weapons ID expert when in such a situation.
