The guy was reportedly quickly detained and by all accounts had the shit kicked out of him by Chappelle’s entourage and Chappelle himself:

Chappelle told the audience “I don’t know if that was part of the show or… I grabbed the back of that n****s head, his hair was spongy, absorbant.”
He then joked that it was a “trans man”:
