Dave Chappelle Attacked On Stage

LOS ANGELES (AP) – Dave Chappelle (shuh-PEHL’) was attacked – but not injured – during a performance at the Hollywood Bowl last night. The comedian was finishing his set when someone ran at him and tried to tackle him. Security guards overpowered the man, dragging him off stage – and Chappelle finished his performance. The man who rushed him was taken away in an ambulance. The Los Angeles Police Department says the 23-year-old man was carrying a fake handgun with a real knife blade inside it. Police say the alleged attacker was treated for an unspecified injury and arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. Jamie Foxx was in the wings of the Hollywood Bowl and during his curtain call, Chappelle thanked him for responding to the attack. Chris Rock was also there; he jokingly asked if the attacker was Will Smith, who slapped Rock during the Oscars.
