Following the comment, which was intended as a joke, a heckler accused the comedian of being a rapist

Bill Cosby reportedly told a woman during his stand-up routine in London, Ontario on Thursday night to be careful drinking around him.

The comment came after a woman seated in the front row was exiting the Budweiser Gardens’ theater. After Cosby asked the woman were she was headed, the unidentified audience member said she was planning to buy a soda in the lobby.

Cosby then responded: “You have to be careful about drinking around me.”

Following what the comedian claims was a joke, a member from the Canadian audience heckled Cosby for being a rapist. The heckler was then removed from the crowd by security, according to the Associated Press.
