Smith, who won the Best Actor statue later in the ceremony, became the undisputed center of attention at the 94th Academy Awards last night after publicly confronting Rock during the presentation for Best Documentary Feature. Smith jumped to his wife's defence after the comedian joked that she could appear in a G.I. Jane sequel.
The actor hit Rock on the face before returning to his seat and shouting, " keep my wife's name out your mouth!"
The Los Angeles Police Department says that Rock has not decided to file a report.
