✖ The Los Angeles Police Department was ready to arrest Will Smith after the Best Actor winner smacked Chris Rock at the Oscars. According to Oscars producer Will Packer in his first televised interview with Good Morning America about the incident, the LAPD was on scene and"prepared" to arrest Smith if Rock pressed charges for the battery that occurred live on air during Sunday's broadcast of the 94th Academy Awards.
"They were saying, you know, this is battery, was a word they used in that moment. They said, 'We will go get him. We are prepared. We're prepared to get him right now. You can press charges, we can arrest him,'" Packer said in a preview of the interview airing Friday on GMA ."They were laying out the options. And as they were talking, Chris was — he was being very dismissive of those options. He was like, 'No, no, no, I'm fine.
When addressing the smack on Sunday, the LAPD said"investigative entities are aware of an incident between two individuals during the Academy Awards program. The incident involved one individual slapping another. The individual involved has declined to file a police report. If the involved party desires a police report at a later date, LAPD will be available to complete an investigative report.
In the clip, Packer said he did not directly speak to Smith after he hit Rock. The Academy said in a statement Wednesday that Smith was asked to leave the ceremony and refused, but according to Deadline, it was only"suggested" by Oscar officials that the King Richard actor leave the Dolby Theatre after Academy president David Rubin and CEO Dawn Hudson conferred with Smith's representative.
