The 57-year-old comedian will have to appear in court next month for the Hooters incident

George Lopez was hit with a misdemeanor battery charge for allegedly roughing up a troll who pushed a camera in his face while making a Trump joke.

The 57-year-old comedian will have to appear in court next month following the incident at Hooters in October, according to TMZ.

In the clip filmed on October 14, a Trump supporter held a phone on selfie mode and waited for the comedian to walk by the New Mexico eatery.

'Here comes my boy George. George Lopez!' the Trump supporter said in the video to get the star's attention.

Lopez seemed agitated as he walks forward and thrusts his hand out to grab the camera saying: 'Start some more bulls***?'

Lopez appeared to lay a hand on the Trump supporter who shouted: 'He's a bad ass! Look at him! He wants to fight me! Hello! George wants to fight me!'

The TV star allegedly put his arm on the back of Trump supporter's neck and the camera went haywire as Lopez tried to snatch the phone out of man's hand.

Lopez informed authorities that he didn't want to be filmed, which is why he tried grabbing the man's phone

The next day after the altercation, cops questioned Lopez at a golf course. He informed them that he didn't want to be filmed, which is why he tried grabbing the man's phone.

He also claimed that the man was baiting him by waiting by the front door with his Trump jokes, aware that he was vehemently anti-Trump.

When officers informed Lopez that he would be getting the court summons, the comedian was said to have been compliant.

Lopez was booed off the stage last year at a charity gala in Denver after his anti-Trump jokes fell flat with the crowd who had paid $5,000 to $100,000 for tables.

One of the event's largest donors, Liberty Media CEO Greg Maffei, was sitting in the front row and asked Lopez to stop with the anti-Trump jokes.
