Authorities said that when officers arrived, the individual had fled the scene. There were no arrests, and the investigation remains ongoing.

A separate report in the New York Post said the suspect, who is believed to be in his 20s, was wearing a dark jacket and pink Crocs. Rock is fresh off his comedy special Selective Outrage, which debuted on Netflix in March. In the special, which was the streamer's first live event, Rock finally addressed the infamous Will Smith Oscars slap, among other topics. Later that month he stepped out in support of longtime friend Adam Sandler at a ceremony for the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. While there, Rock, who turned down hosting the 2023 Oscars after being slapped by Smith at last year's awards, called the Academy a bunch of "f---ing a--holes" for never nominating Sandler.
