Barnes then described how the attacker got on stage and charged at Chappelle. He said, “It was at the end of the show. So it almost seemed fake. It almost seemed like damn they’re gonna do a little stunt out of this. But it was real. So the motherf**ker went his way up to the front. Jumped up, ran and tackled him and Dave kinda dodged it a little bit.”
