David Spade woke up at 6 a.m. to his personal assistant standing in his bedroom. “Is there anyone else in the house?” “No,” Spade said. Then the man punched him in the face and hit him with a stun gun. Spade says they had spent the previous day editing Joe Dirt. They had even made plans to go out the following night. Nothing had seemed wrong. The assistant had the security codes to Spade’s house. He said the alarm company had called. Spade looked up and saw him in the doorway, mostly a silhouette. Then came the question. Then the punch. Spade says he was thrown to the floor and kept asking himself if it was a dream. When he finally got free, he saw blood. The man came at him again. Spade made it outside, but the gates in his driveway had trapped him inside his own home. “I thought, this guy’s gonna kill me,” he says. He was thrown onto the cement. Spade says he got one hand free and hit him five times. Then he ran back inside, slammed the door and locked it. “The door was shaking like a rhino was hitting it,” Spade says. He went to his bedroom, grabbed a loaded shotgun and told the man he would shoot through the door. Only then did he leave. Spade says the assistant had been around him for five years. He still didn’t know why he did it.
