Afroman Punching Fan Caught On Video
A video emerged recently showing Afroman hitting a woman dancing on stage while he was performing at a concert last Tuesday. The rapper was playing his guitar before he turns around and appeared to hit the woman. He continues playing as the woman goes down.
An arrest report from the Biloxi Police Department indicated that the authorities responded to a report of an assault involving Afroman, who is known as Joseph Edgar Foreman in real life. The report showed that the assault happened at the Kress Live Entertainment Venue. The star was arrested following a Citizen’s Affidavit. He was booked before being released after he paid the $330 bond.
Police Chief John Miller revealed through the Biloxi Sun Herald that the woman reportedly got up onto the stage before the rapper hit her. The star later apologized for the incident and reportedly indicated that he will enroll in an anxiety foundation.
He apologized through TMZ and said that he needed help. He revealed that a man was heckling him off-stage, and when the woman went on the stage he became irritated. He also said some actions should have been taken by security personnel at the venue. Despite this, he said it was a mistake that he lashed out.
He said it was wrong and it should not have happened. A representative revealed through Billboard that the star has experienced some trouble with fans getting into the stage in the past. The representative indicated that the action of the star was an involuntary reflex reaction whenever people invade his space on the stage. The behavior of the actor was supposedly uncharacteristic that was set off by uncontrolled forces. The poor security at Kress Live contributed to the incident, the representative added.
The biggest hit of Afroman was "Because I Got High,” which was released in 2000.
