The actor ascended to the stage to slap Rock across the face, before returning to his seat and shouting, "Keep my wife's name out your fucking mouth!" While the exchange was censored on the U.S. broadcast, the full footage from international broadcasts has since made the rounds online.

However, the Los Angeles Police Department says Rock has not opted to file a report with them.

"LAPD investigative entities are aware of an incident between two individuals during the Academy Awards program," the department said in a statement, according to Variety. "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."

Pinkett Smith has alopecia, a medical condition which causes hair loss. She publicly revealed her diagnosis in 2018, and has been open about her struggles with the autoimmune disease in the years since.

"It was terrifying when it first started," Pinkett Smith said in 2018. "You know, I was in the shower one day, and then just handfuls of hair just [fell out] in my hands, and I was just like, 'Oh my god, am I going bald?' It was one of those times in my life where I was literally shaking with fear…. That's why I cut my hair."

The Academy has issued a statement about the incident between Smith and Rock on Twitter, stating that it "does not condone violence of any form."

"Tonight we are delighted to celebrate our 94th Academy Awards winners, who deserve this moment of recognition from their peers and movie lovers around the world," it wrote.
