LOS ANGELES -- Isaiah Lee, the suspect in the on-stage attack on Dave Chappelle, was ordered to stay away from the comedian and the Hollywood Bowl amphitheater as he entered a not-guilty plea on Friday.
Lee has been identified as the man seen on video rushing the stage as Chappelle performed Tuesday night as part of the"Netflix Is a Joke" comedy festival. He tackled the comedian before security swooped in, rushed him to the side of the stage and subdued him. "Entertainers in Los Angeles need to know that the justice system will protect them on stage," he said.
It was not immediately known if Lee has had retained a lawyer, and the motive for the attack was unclear.Appearing on"Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Thursday night, Hart said:"We've now lost sight of the relationship of audience to comedian, and that line has gotten blurred to where it's like, 'Well, I don't need to do this and like this, and I can stand up and make a point.
