As if Katt Williams' track record with the law could get any worse, the comedian turned actor has landed himself in hot water once again. Over the weekend the 39-year-old funnyman was reportedly arrested following a run-in with a tractor driver.
According to TMZ, law enforcement officials stated that a man, who was doing landscaping on the Palmdale, California home where Williams was staying, suffered facial injuries stemming from an attack in which three women approached his tractor and began throwing rocks at him on Saturday afternoon.
The unidentified man then proceeded to call his wife, who attempted to pick her husband up from the California residence, before Williams pulled up in an SUV which blocked the couples exit. The L.A. County Sheriff's Department arrived on the scene shortly after and arrested the three women for assault with a deadly weapon and Williams with intimidating a witness. His bail was set at $50,000 and he was released later that night.
Upon his release, the 'Friday After Next' star took to his Twitter account to share his thoughts on people who find themselves caught up in the law. "If you admit to crimes on social networks or post evidence #youdumbashell," he wrote.
Although Williams may have tried to make light of Saturday's incident, his growing rap sheet is no laughing matter.
In November 2009, Williams made headlines for an alleged burglary in which he was accused of taking nearly $4,000 worth of jewelry and collectible coins from a suburban Atlanta home. Just a few days after that, a 17-year-old claimed Williams held him and "threatened" to beat him up if he left a Newman, Ga. estate where Williams was staying at the time.
That same month The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that the comedian was kicked out of his rented penthouse suite in Atlanta's Four Seasons hotel, due to employees complaining that he was causing a disturbance among other guests.
"I haven't been here 72 hours and I'm being kicked out of the Four Seasons even though I paid up front and in cash," he said at the time during a press conference. "I don't understand. I'm at the point now where I'm standing out here with millions of dollars in movies and TV specials sold, and most of them done right here in Atlanta. And to be ceremoniously dismissed at a hotel is sad."

He needs to sit his short azz down somewhere. How can a grown man, who purchases his clothing from Sears kids department, cause so much havoc?

Its ok to be funny, act stupid, and the likes.but to do real stupid crimial things,knowing that this is all the wicked "controlling" part of society needs to end another fortunate black mans careeer, should cause him to stop and look at his behavior, and change it asap, because in the end Katt will only have himself to blame. Get it together my brother. "here today and gone tomarrow" just like that!!!

bill. Newflash.
You can't claim Dirk Nowtiski since he is a foreigner....A european....A White German and not a White American.
We all know that since Larry Bird retired from the NBA decades ago, Whites have been pining and waiting for the next "great White Hope" in the NBA but Dirk Nowtiski isn't it so you and your brethern can stop claiming him as one of yours.
And I'll bet before the NBA finals, you and probably 75% of White Americans in America didn't even know who Dirk Nowtiski was and as usual once you realized that Dirk was an NBA superstar and was that good, you and your people, as they always do, automatically started rooting for him to win against Lebron James and the Miami Heat and tried to claim him as one of yours (an honrary American) when he belongs to Germany....A German citizen with an American work visa just like any other foreign professional athlete from Mexico, Cuba or Japan.
And after the parade in Dallas, Dirk Nowtiski will leave Texas and return home to Wurtburg, Germany where he lives.
He does not live here and he does not spend the off-season here. He only works here.
When the next White "American born and bred" superstar shows up and leads his team to an NBA championship, they you can claim bragging rights.
Nice try....... dumbass.

I don't understand why the article doesn't say, who the 3 woman were and why they were all there, throwing rocks at Katt when he arrived at his house? The story doesn't make sense? What part did the Landscape man had in this matter? The article doesn't say, why Katt wouldn't let the Landscape's wife and himself leave? Katt didn't get physical altercations with the Landscaper? I don't care how many incidents Katt has ran in with the law, incidents like this, will never derail his career.
However, if this would have been a life or death situation or something SERIOUS that's different. I don't think that this should have been in the media at all. The media a lot of times, over Exaggerate the situation People will try anything to try to bring this man down. As Katt would say, "Pimp Down".

Hey Dime, WHAT'S UP. I been gone for a minute but BIG CONGRATS to your kids AND YOU, girl for getting them there on their graduation. I know yall had a blowout and did it up right. So you a Katt fan huh. I have only seen that one performance he did with the "EVERY DAY IM HUS-SELL-IN" and I thought he was pretty funny. Then there was supposed to be some kind of problem with him and Steve Harvey that I never could get the story straight and I thought was a made up thing anyway. Hey Girl, Yeah we glad as hell it cooled down, but like I said I bet we gonna get roasted again in July and August, so I'm getting ready now. You know I be gettin IN & OUT fast so catch me if you can.LOLOLOL. Oh and before I go, Hey Pink I agree with you 100% but then it wouldn't take a whole lot 2 B funnier that Tracy Morgan, Hell if I commited MYSELF to it I could do that. Be BLESSED and stay SAFE everybody. PEACE.

Aww...Bill is just happy to see a white guy stand out in basketball since Larry Bird. Why do all white men think they are superior over other races? Could it be your really insecure with the fact your genes are recessive or that the earth in more heavily populated with brown and black ethnicities. Hate stems from fear and is related to the ignorance of one self. Please Bill, create better thoughts in your psyche and stop wasting time with the output of garbage!
