The clip shows a group of people standing outside the Hollywood Improv while a woman identified as Cristina Patyne appears to shout at Holcomb, TMZ reported.

Several bystanders then rushed at Holcomb and tackled him to the ground, the video shows.

Payne filed a battery report with the Los Angeles Police Department following the attack, but authorities never arrested Holcomb, TMZ reported.

The LAPD did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.

Law enforcement sources say the confrontation stemmed from a months-long dispute between the two comedians, TMZ reported.

The ongoing dispute traces back to at least July 2024, when Holcomb allegedly made threatening comments about Payne, including saying he would “super sock” her, which fueled tension between them long before the punch outside the Hollywood Improv, according to reports.

Neither Holcomb nor his representatives have commented, and the Hollywood Improv has not addressed the incident.
