The office of controversial Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon declined to charge the armed suspect who charged comedian Dave Chappelle while he was performing earlier this week, instead opting to indict the man on four misdemeanor charges.
“After reviewing the evidence, prosecutors determined that while criminal conduct occurred, the evidence as presented did not constitute felony conduct,” his office said in a statement. “The District Attorney’s Office does not prosecute misdemeanor crimes within the city of Los Angeles.”
