Dave says he convinced cops Tuesday night to let him speak to Isaiah Lee before he was taken away. Dave says, “I needed to talk to him” to find out why he attacked. Chappelle says Lee told him this was all about getting attention for his grandmother … who he said had been forced out of her neighborhood because of gentrification.

Dave was at the Comedy Store on the Sunset Strip, and there were lots of celebs in attendance, including Kim Kardashian, Diddy, Jeff Ross and Chris Rock. Chris joined Dave on stage and they joked about both being attacked during a performance.
At one point Dave said, “At least you got smacked by someone of repute. I got smacked by a homeless guy with leaves in his hair!” Chris’s response … “I got smacked by the softest n**** that ever rapped.”
