It was a very sad day as family and friends gathered for the funeral service of actor and comedian Ricky Harris, who passed away suddenly on December 26.
Unfortunately, during the funeral service a fight broke out after someone tried to approach Snoop Dogg and his bodyguard intervened.
Sherri Shepherd, who was also in attendance, was distraught as she recounted the incident. The actress and comedian said:
We’re at Ricky Harris’ funeral and we’re about to go see the body and somebody came into the funeral home and went towards Snoop [Dogg].
And Snoop’s bodyguard tackled him and it was just a big fight and it was so disrespectful to Ricky Harris.
Watch the clip of Sherri’s reaction below.
What an unfortunate situation at Ricky’s homegoing service.
Snoop Dogg took to Instagram to say the “devil is a muthaf**kin lie” and that the service was beautiful.

Via TMZ:
Multiple sources inside the Long Beach church tell us it was one of Ricky’s cousins who stepped to Snoop and called him a “b**ch ass n****.” We’re told 2 members of Snoop’s crew — Daz Dillinger and another dude — stepped up, took down the cousin … and all hell broke loose.
Snoop’s bodyguard eventually dragged the guy out of the church.
Initially, there was talk a guy named Big Flossy — who has a longstanding beef with Snoop — had started the fight, but we’ve confirmed Flossy wasn’t involved.
Unbelievable.
My thoughts and prayers are with the Harris family.
Rest in grace, Ricky.
