PEOPLE confirmed the incident took place outside of The Comedy Cellar on Wednesday night. A DCPI spokesperson said a 37-year-old man exited his vehicle and approached the venue when a man allegedly punched him in the face. The alleged assailant fled the scene. The victim was then rushed to Bellevue Hospital.

Redd’s team did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment at the time.

Though Redd is resting before getting back on the road, he’ll appear on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Monday night. The episode was pre-recorded before the violent incident.

Redd teased the appearance on Instagram alongside a joke about taking a “break” from his celebrity duties.

“Last thing I did before my face took a ‘break,'” Redd captioned a poster for the Cohen-hosted interview.

Redd, who announced his leave from SNL in September, has a comedy special coming to HBO Max this week. Why Am I Like This? is set to premiere Thursday.
