[Smells Like News] Katt Williams Arrested, Jailed on Burglary Charge
Apparent comedian Katt Williams has been arrested and jailed in Georgia on charges of burglary and criminal trespassing following an incident yesterday.
A deputy at the jail in Coweta County, southwest of Atlanta, said Williams was being held and that a magistrate was expected to set bond at arraignment.
The deputy didn't have access to a police report to provide more details of the alleged break-in using a crowbar. Katt Williams' real name is Micah Williams.
He's known for appearances on BET and HBO, including an HBO special, Katt Williams: Pimp Chronicles Part 1, shot in Atlanta. He also had roles in the movies Friday After Next and Norbit, among other works of genius.
THAT DARN KATT: Williams' mug shot taken yesterday.
Williams was arrested after a man named Daniel Broach claimed the comedian broke into his home Sunday night and stole $3,555 worth of jewelry and collectible coins.
Katt's lawyer says the whole thing is a sham and just the result of a dispute Katt had with a another man. Katt is officially back on the prowl, for now, after posting bail.
