From TMZ:
A private jet carrying comedian Dave Chappelle made an emergency landing in Pittsburgh last night because the pilot couldn't handle Chappelle's erratic behavior, TMZ has learned.
A source extremely familiar with the incident tells TMZ Chappelle boarded a private jet in New Jersey last night bound for Ohio -- where the actor lives.
During the flight, we're told Dave "freaked out" and refused to put his seat belt on. Then -- according to sources -- Dave repeatedly walked into the cockpit, asking how much longer the flight would be, and started grabbing the pilot's arms.
Sources say the pilot determined Chappelle was a safety risk and diverted the plane to Pittsburgh.
We're told Chappelle then checked into a nearby hotel for the night. Sources at the hotel tell us Dave has been telling hotel employees he wanted to rent a car to drive back to Ohio ... only he couldn't remember where he lived.
Chappelle was spotted wandering out of the hotel early this morning.
A rep for Chappelle explains the incident to TMZ by saying Dave really needed to use the restroom -- he ate something that didn't sit well -- and the bathroom on the plane was "not the kind he needed."
That doesn't explain why he couldn't remember how to get home. Dave's been laying low for a long time now it seems, aside from some stand up. Hope things are ok

It looks like Dave will have to wait for the killer bees to come to him.

Dave has been said to be doing well. Hopefully, this isn't anything serious.

Remember how Vince was wanting to do a Chappelle gimmick a few years back? I think I know just the guy...

Maybe he was just getting sick and tired of all the monkey loving snakes on the Monday to Friday plane?

The pilot was probably at his last comedy show and was freaking out Dave.

I'll just wait for the "he's suffering from exhaustion" line.
I'm not making light of his situation, I hope that he sorts his life out and gets whatever help he needs. It just seems like every time this happens we get the "exhaustion" line.
