Richard Monroe, 24, claims he was beaten up at a Snoop Dogg concert after he was encouraged to climb on the stage. King County sherif''s deputies are investigating the case.

Monroe sustained that some of the performers and other on the stage kicked and punched him, poured alcohol on him, ripped out his diamond earrings and stole his watch, cellphone and wallet. "They beat me like a slave," he told the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. "It's horrible. They just went too far."

Some video footage aired on KING Television showed a man being tackled by several others after approaching Snoop Dogg from behind and putting his arm around the rapper's shoulders, write Herald.

Meredith O'Sullivan, a publicist for Snoop Dogg, declared in a statement that is someone climbs the stage "has to be interpreted as a security threat and an immediate risk."
