Dave Chappelle releases first statement about 'unsettling' attack
A representative for Dave Chappelle has released a statement regarding an audience member who attacked him Tuesday night while the comedian was performing at the Hollywood Bowl.
"As unfortunate and unsettling as the incident was, Chappelle went on with the show," Carla Sims, Chappelle's representative, said in a statement.
"Jamie Foxx and Chris Rock helped calm the crowd with humor before Chappelle introduced the last and featured musical guests for the evening."
The Ladies of the View mentioned this incident today...and made everyone laugh because they said Chris Rock said "was that Will Smith"
about the person that attacked Chappell.
Chappelle is "fully cooperating" with the police investigation of the incident.The motive of the apparent attack remains unclear. And thank goodness he wasn't hurt
It also wasn't clear whether Chappelle filed an official police report.

He's been highly criticized by the gay community but I know nothing of the incident. Haven't watched yesterday's show yet.
Sad. Tough to be a comic. If you can't take a joke, stay out of the comedy clubs.
