Killer Mike deflects unruly fan at Run the Jewels' SXSW set

So the moral is: Don't mess with Killer Mike.

The big man handily dispatched an unruly fan who barged onstage during Run the Jewels' set at SXSW on Monday.

The rap duo of Atlanta's Killer Mike and El-P was performing in Austin at a Spotify house event when the incident - filmed by a fan - occurred.

Although Killer Mike ably kept the interloper away from his partner, Run the Jewels' crew quickly stormed the stage to assure the guy was removed.
