Footage posted to social media by fans shows the final moments of the show, as the couple exit the stage after performing their track “Apeshit.” Then someone in a white T-shirt and black shorts is seen emerging from the audience and apparently following them offstage.
Dancers then break into a run and follow after the intruder. Fans can be heard saying: “It’s a fight!”

More footage captured the moment when concert security stepped in to contain the situation as the dancers and the band were briskly ushered off the stage.
Beyoncé Enforcer@BeyonceEnforcerSomeone jumped on stage and tried to rush Beyoncé & JAY Z at the end of tonight’s show in Atlanta. #OTRII Dancers tried to stop them. The Beyhive is wondering, where in the world was security as the dancers were left to defend themselves as he pushed and ran on stage.
This video, shot from a different angle, shows how the stage invader hopped onstage and weaved in between the dancers to follow the Carters backstage.
The couple, who are worth an estimated $1.25 billion, are currently on the North American leg of their On the Run II tour, the sequel to their first joint tour in 2014.
