SNL Alum Chris Redd Suspects Brutal NYC Attack ‘Was A Planned Situation’

perezhilton.com:

More than one month after Chris Redd’s violent attack, the comedian is offering HIS take on what happened… If you hadn’t heard before now, the Saturday Night Live cast member was standing around talking outside of the Comedy Cellar in NYC in late October ahead of a scheduled stand-up set when someone struck him in the face “out of nowhere.” The scary incident ended up landing him in the hospital, but luckily, he’s okay — besides the fact that there’s someone running around out there who physically assaulted him.

While appearing on SiriusXM’s The Bennington Show this week, the 37-year-old told host Ron Bennington he believes the attack was anything but a “random” act of violence, explaining:  We can’t help but agree with him… We mean, if someone’s standing around outside of a comedy club in late October in New York — where it gets FRIGID, to say the least — they likely have an intention.

The star said he’ll “probably release the footage and do a voiceover thing” eventually, jokingly pointing out the positive impact the whole situation had on his career.
