Rapper Lil Baby had a creepy encounter in Switzerland this week when a fan grabbed him before he was quickly thrown off the stage by security.
The 27-year-old rapper (real name Dominique Jones) was performing at the Openair Frauenfeld Festival on Thursday when a fan ran up to him on stage and touched him, according to video apparently taken by a fan near the stage.
Lil Baby’s security guards springed into action and quickly pushed the man off the stage.

In the short clip, Lil Baby is rapping looking to the side of the stage when he turns to the back of the stage and sees a man walking towards him.
He extends both hands and appears to be touching the hitmaker on his arms, while the rapper extends a hand to try to keep the intruder at bay.
But the chilling encounter is over almost as quickly as it began when multiple security guards rush from the same backstage area.
One of the men gives the stage jumper a powerful shove, which not only pushes him off Lil Baby, but also throws him over the edge of the stage.

Ejected: But then you see two security guards rushing in, one pushes the man so hard that he flies off the stage
Ouch: The man appears to crash into the metal fence keeping the audience off the stage before hitting the ground, but his condition is unknown
Legal problems? It’s unclear if the stage jumper clashed with police after the festival performance; Lil Baby was spotted in Birmingham, UK on July 9th
The impact is partially obscured by the heads of concert-goers, but the man appears to crash into the metal fence designed to keep fans off the stage.
A man who appears to be part of the festival’s security team runs toward the man who is lying on the ground, while the two security guards who rushed toward him head to the back of the stage.
It is currently unclear who the stage jumper was and whether he faced legal ramifications or required medical treatment following the incident.
This wasn’t the only frightening encounter between fans and artists at the Swiss festival, as rapper Roddy Ricch had a clash where a fan made it onto the stage early and was attacked by security guards.
While under her weight, he reached out a hand to grab Ricch’s leg, after which the rapper began kicking him.

Cardi B also apparently had an altercation at the Wireless Festival in London over the weekend.
The WAP hitmaker was seen on video appearing to wipe down her microphone at someone in the crowd.
After the footage was posted online, Cardi denied there was an altercation, tweeting, “It wasn’t a FIGHT!”
Videos from other angles seemed to support her claim that she wasn’t hitting a specific person.
