Fans attending Katt Williams’ performance in Indianapolis made their way to the exits a little earlier than planned thanks to some fighting fans in the upper deck.
The 52-year-old comedian – who was punched by Dave Chappelle in January – was performing at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum in Indianapolis on Saturday night when a fight broke out between fans.
While the first report of TMZ seemed to indicate that a larger portion of the show was affected, with a representative for the comedian saying that only five minutes of the show were cut.
Video of the event was taken far from the brawl on the upper deck, although there was no clear view of the altercation.
The video shows that the lights in the house are still off during the performance, as usual, although fans can be heard reacting to the brawl.

The 52-year-old comedian – who was punched by Dave Chappelle in January – was performing at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum in Indianapolis on Saturday night when a fight broke out between fans.
Some security guards rush to break it up, while other fans turn to turn on the lights.
Moments later, the lights came on, with images of the aftermath showing some of the participants, one of whom appeared bloodied.
Williams himself has not publicly commented on the brawl at this time, although his team has stated the reason why the lights came on.
Members of the comedian’s team said they believe the venue’s policy is to turn the lights back on after a show.
They don’t think the lights came on to illuminate the brawl, but simply because the show ended earlier than normal.
The venue was evacuated early due to the brawl, although it is unclear how Williams responded to the show ending early.
There’s also no word on what caused the fight, or whether any criminal charges have been filed as a result.
Katt made headlines for his criticism of many black comedians in his viral Shannon Sharpe interview, which Dave Chappelle criticized him for on Friday night at MonDeRays at Hollywood Improv.

Katt made headlines for criticizing many black comedians in his viral Shannon Sharpe interview, which Dave Chappelle criticized him for Friday night at MonDeRays at Hollywood Improv.
A clip appeared X, in which Chappelle said, “What part of the game is this?” He etherealized n****s. He didn’t say anything about these white boys. None of these white guys function like that.”
Continuing to emphasize his point, the old comic added, “Katt is one of the best painters in the game. So why are you taking ugly pictures of us? Stop. Hurting people, hurting people, but I’m a hurting person who never hurts people, and he does it all the time.”
The sit-down conversation between host Shannon Sharpe and Williams has been widely circulated on the internet and was even parodied on the latest episode of Saturday Night Live.
