Speaking on the matter, the Police Service of Northern Ireland said: “Enquiries were made and no offences were detected.”
Former boxing world champion Carl Frampton responded to the police’s statement by saying: “I've never been so embarrassed of my city.”
Lycett revealed the news in a post on Instagram yesterday, explained the context of the quip, which he said “hopefully amused” the audience member.
The stand-up comedian said: “So someone came to my tour show a few weeks back and was offended by one of the jokes.
“And their perfectly understandable response to this was… to call the f****** police.
“To be fair to them the fuzz were very nice about it all but felt they had a duty to investigate.
“This involved me writing a statement explaining the context of the joke for them; I particularly enjoyed putting the words ‘giant donkey d***’ into a message to a police detective.
“Charmed, and hopefully amused, the rozzers have since closed the matter.”
He added: “You’ll be pleased to know the joke – which I consider to be one of the best I’ve ever written – remains firmly and proudly in the show.
“The tour continues until September, unless I am jailed.”
