Police have arrested a suspect in the onstage attack of Dave Chappelle at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles Tuesday during the Netflix Is A Joke festival. An audience member stormed the stage as Chappelle, 48, was exiting the stage after his performance, lunging at him and tackling him to the ground, according to a press release from the Los Angeles Police Department.
