Earlier we reported that Mike Epps might be the reason behind an alleged assault on fellow comedian Lavar Walker. Now more details have surfaced about the alleged attack. Here’s the play by play. According to a source, an Atlanta police officer was dispatched to an injured person Saturday night. Upon arrival the officer met with the victim, Lavar Walker, who stated 3 black males, one he recognized as Mike Epps, attacked him. Walker stated that he received a phone call from Epps at an earlier date in which Epps threatened Walker because of a joke Walker had made about Epps.
While at Uptown Comedy Corner, the scene of the alleged crime, Walker was told that Epps was outside and wanted to talk to him. When Walker stepped outside and approached Epps he stated that he was struck in the face by Epps fist. Walker claimed that Epps and the 2 other black males then hit him repeatedly.
Walker stated he was slammed into the vehicle Mike Epps was driving, a red Ferrari Italian, and kicked in the stomach and back while he was on the ground. Walker stated that the suspects took his cell phone and threw it onto the roof of the comedy club and crushed his prescription glasses.
Walker stated that Epps was wearing a red baseball hat, a jogging suit top and jeans. One of the other males was wearing a blue jogging suit and the other male was wearing a light colored crewneck sweater. The two unnamed gentlemen left the scene in a white Yukon while Epps left in the red Ferrari, which did not have a tag.
There was one witness who stated he saw the attack but could not point out the suspects if he saw them again. There also were cameras, but according to the source, it is unconfirmed if the incident was caught on tape. Walker sustained visible injuries to his head with heavy bruising and lacerations. He was then transported to Grady Hospital.
Local authorities are investigating the attack on Lavar Walker and it is not looking good for Mike Epps.
Epps who is already beefing with comedian Kevin Hart looks to be sending a message with the alleged beating of comedian Lavar Walker. You know we live in a violent world when the people who are supposed to make you laugh are attacking people in back alleys. On another note, how funny would it be to have a celebrity-boxing match between Epps and Hart. The thought of it is hilarious.
