Corey Holcomb has been accused of assaulting another comedian all over a beef they've had for years.
TMZ has reported that Holcomb was seen screaming at Cristina Payne and her friend outside of the Hollywood Improv comedy club. He allegedly threatened to punch Payne in the face, but a random man got in the middle before Holcomb swung and made contact with Payne.
Sources told TMZ that a group of people and Holcomb ended up tackling the man who tried to intervene, only for Holcomb to run off shortly after. Paramedics reportedly showed up to check on Payne and the random man, but they were not taken to the hospital. Police, on the other hand, took a battery report.
According to TMZ's sources, the incident comes from a feud that started in July when Holcomb allegedly told people he would "super sock" Payne and added that "somebody come get this bitch before I fuck her up." The sources also state that Holcomb saw Payne earlier this month and confronted her while trying to punch her.
Sources close to Payne told TMZ that Holcomb has been using his platform to deny that he assaulted her. However, TMZ stated there are people who are willing to speak up if he's arrested and charged. There have been no arrests as of press time.
