Katt Williams is back behind bars. The 47-year-old comedian was arrested on suspicion of assaulting an Uber driver during an argument about driving his dog from a private Portland, Oregon airport on Friday night.
Williams, whose real name is Micah Williams, was booked to perform in Nick Cannon’s “Wild ‘N Out” comedy show in Portland when the incident occurred.
The limo driver was taken to a hospital for treatment of multiple lacerations and bruises on his face. Williams left the scene in another Uber car. He was arrested and booked in jail on Saturday.
Williams, who has 19 prior felonies, is currently being held on $2,500 bail.
He is charged with assault in the fourth degree, and he is scheduled to be arraigned on Monday. He is also being held on an arrest warrant out of Georgia.
An employee who answered the phone at Atlantic Aviation Airport told a reporter her boss instructed workers not to comment on the incident.
Williams who is best known for his standup comedy won an Emmy last month for “Best Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his appearance in FX’s “Atlanta”.
Oh no not again. Kat needs help, he is a huge talent but his fcuk ups are holding him back in the industry. Dang!
You can always tell when Katt Williams has upset the “status quo.” He ends of being arrested shortly there after.
Williams, who has 19 prior felonies,
^^^^^
He has zero prior felonies.

Big facts. I knew this was coming
A tremendous talent, but not a good role model for his children. His kids…that he clearly loves…are learning what they see, not necessarily what he may tell them.
His fame & money get him out of jail. They won’t have that privilege.
Katt needs to put his temper in check. We want to see him working…not in mugsh0ts.
Wow, katt williams is on a roll, what will he do next? He will pay the $2500 bail and be out and on to his next adventure.
Every single time ….
Every single time ….
Sissss!!
I saw this and immediately thought of you!
I think you can click and it’ll take you to it!
His No Bi**h took me right out!
Evvverytime he speaks the truth..

Yeah cuz the “status quo” gave the limo driver multiple lacerations & bruises.?
I fw Katt but damn..
$2500? Why is he still locked up?
He looks healthy in that pic. Anyone know what that is on his chin?
Drugs make u fight for no reason
I love Katt. The end!!
If you believe that this tiny man is doing ALL of this damage to grown folks but can’t whoop a kid his size then so be it.
So let me get this straight……Katt is ALWAYS successful in whooping grown folks azzes but can’t whoop a kid. Yeah….ok.
I was so done when I saw this??????
Love Katt too.
SPEAK!
It has never been one time that he has not spoken out against something or about something in the industry, that within a week or two he is arrested. It’s traceable and available to all the naysayers
TELL IT!!!!!!!
Katt just cain’t get right. Folks gone still blame it on TPTB and not this grown arse lil man?.
He looks good in that picture don’t care still like him
19 times arrested. That is no coincidence. If it IS a conicidence it’s a hellava of a one
But Katt put his hands on that 15 year old FIRST….if that’s what you referring to. https://youtu.be/LdMFEhM17z8
Tell it!
The driver was probably a set up to provoke and instigate. Racism goes to insidious lengths to cut down uppity black folks speaking the truth.
SMH ?????…..lil Napoleon Dynamite
The point I am making is that a child beat his azz. Now imagine if Katt put hands on a grown man as they are always claiming…..what that kid did to him would be NOTHING compared to what a grown azz man would do to him. Katt would be deceased.
EXACTLY!!!!
How is it holding him back. He just won an Emmy for a GUEST appearance.
Katt scratched em up ??
He doesn’t seem like a violent person.
God I just LOVE when we can see the truth behind racist targeting.
When you’ve lived it you know it when you see it.
I wonder what ends up happening after the arrests. Is he on probation? Were charges dismissed? You always hear about the arrests but never the resolution.
Exactly what I mean by holding him back. He is soooo talented and every time he rocks the boat something happens. No coincidence.
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What did he do/say/speak out against? I may have missed it. The last thing I remember is him being chased by that lady’s husband. Did something else happen after that?
I’m telling you, that Uber was a set up to make sure he didn’t get to his show.
I wonder if his Uber account is in his real or stage name? Or did the venue order the Uber for him? If Katt was identifiable, then this was a set up.
No one likes to talk about it but Uber DOES racially profile and keeps tabs on black folks.
Kevin Hart and Tiffany Haddish.
I am sure “Big Brother” keeps a close eye on him and know his every move.
Oooohh ok. I remember that now. I never listened to his (or Kevin’s and Tiffany’s) interview, but I remember the buzz about it. Thanks.
Katt’s only fk up is being a highly intelligent, conscientious, articulate, conscious, independent, outspoken, and very rich black male entertainer in America.
Well you know what’s coming next for Katt…….look for him to be caught up in some type of rape allegation. This usually works every time when it’s alleged against a black man. ALL SUPPORT WILL BE WITHDRAWN. They will effectively cut his resources. WATCH AND SEE!
No problem.
SPEAK!!!!!!
He is more talented than a lot of the “steadily working” comedians out there, that is what I meant by “holding him back”.
I watched it too many times … lmao!!
Correction, as per Katt: 19 felonies…NO convictions LOLOL
He got a tattoo on his chin
Dared to call out Hollywood’s tokens of the moment for being tokens of the moment. Especially calling out Tiffany pandering to white men, that set off the white male Hollywood establishment.
He is all of what you stated above yet mediocre comedians are out there steadily working. THAT is what I meant.

If you’re a millionare many times over, and yet you keep finding yourself in handcuffs sitting in the back of a police car, you probably need to seriously examine your life.
Only use “foreign white” fictious names on Uber and only give proximity of destination and then direct to the nearby real address when you get nearby.
It should have been picking up “Thor” going to the “Starbucks near the venue”. Not Katt going to the venue. Katt has to outsmart big brother because the targeting is very real.
Kat is already prepared for this … many like himself have been through the ringer spiritually ….. his resources are already stored ….. his awareness to what these folks are doing is all he needs and he knows ….. these folks make me sick …. the industry is a beast if you don’t bow to them and he want …..
He pays high-powered attorneys to get him a light sentence, or get the charges dismissed. When you can afford the best lawyers money can buy, that’s what usually happens. The system doesnt treat rich people the way it treats regular folk like us.
What’s so hard about getting out the first Uber and calling another one? ??
smh. cocaine leads to receding hairlines.
The more mediocre comedians and the more successful comedians aren’t a threat to the Hollywood establishment like Katt is.
I agree. Most of us wouldnt even accept this kind of behavior if we had a teenage son acting this way. For a nearly 50 year old man to be acting like this is ridiculous.

All those bitter “old school” comedians (I see you Red!) enabling this dude when he is CLEARLY attempting to cover his mental health issues with drug usage. A real friend would help, not d ride…

Oh you mean like the high powered attorneys…..Bill Cosby, Tupac, Tyson, OJ, and the many other convicted black stars had. Uhhhhh…..high powered attorneys only works in the cases of white folks.

Yeah, I could come up with examples too, like Puffy, Jay Z, OJ (got off on the first murder case), Chris Brown and others… in addition to Katt Williams here. Katt himself says he’s been arrested like 18 times and never went to prison. You think Tyrone from the ‘hood would have gotten the same treatment after multiple drug & assault arests? Nah. Having an expensive attorney is a big help. It might not protect you every time, but it definitely helps.
and I tell folks all thee time …. there are no coincidences in this world …. None https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c1425c997ed3319b16098cad0d4bebaabde80cd22860d557863b4ff2c949aed9.gif Stay Woke bew !!!
LOLLOLLOL!!!!!!!!!!!
You see what I did there huh…??

Y’all still say ain’t nuffin wrong with press n curl Williams? Y’all still think that pink hair rollers wearing muva hunchie don’t need to go to drug rehab? Um huh.
?talkin bout it’s a conspiracy cuz he talked about Tiffany and Kevin…Chile.
Did R. Kelly have a baby with his cousin or no? I really just need to know if he has a 21 y.o cousin/son out here.
Thank you. Ninjas want to be blaming “the system” for every thing, and making excuses for bad behavior. smh.
Millionaires and non millionaires suffer mental illness too, and both sets of groups sometimes refuse to get treatment
these are just facts, sir lol.
Whoa. I didn’t hear anything about this.
(goes to google)
Ummmm,
If his bail is only 2500, why is he still locked up? lol
WHET?????
You can NOT be moonlighting and not give them their cut Katt done say there’s and bragged on the airwaves about how He produced and made all this money off his own tours with no middle man and that he has booked his own shows no middle man all that money and they ain’t getting a cut!! And now you telling others how you cutting deals god forbid they get the notion to do the same. NOW with that being said I still feel like katt has some issues because knowing what he knows he should move differently and avoid the bs at all costs . Also when being targeted spiritually and otherwise you should keep a sober mind meaning no alcohol no weed no nothing cuz those things lower your inhibition and you won’t be fully aware of the evil that’s lurking during your time being lit!
Allegedly. Started sleeping with his cousin when she was 14. She had the baby at 17. Son is now 21 (and he might be fine couldn’t really see the pic).
The most surprising thing in this story is that his real name is Micah. ?
He is mental health.
I wonder if a conviction will stick with this charge. I’m sure it doesn’t matter, they know he’s done in the court of public opinion. We love our own, but only until their propaganda tells us not to. Everybody loves Dave Chappelle, but listened and learned nothing from his dealings with these people. I wonder if he is still on the crack they claimed he left money behind to go smoke.
hes so nasty
Surprise Surprise! Nothing new here people so lets just move along. History shows once he’s released he’ll be back in jail within a month.
all the bags he gets from his constant touring he spends on his high priced attorneys.got it????do better Katt
Lmao facts
Was the dog his or the Uber’s?
HAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHA.
I thought the same. lol
The truth hurts. Every time this man speaks his truth people are sent to mess with because the know he the type to press buttons.
Somebody explain this to me. If you have a history of violence, doesn’t your insurance cost go up? I thought that the rappers, actors, comedians who had a history of bad behavior and violence couldn’t be insured. How is it that Katt is on a tour with Nick Cannon? Doesn’t that cause insurance to go up?
Right. Bye short little “crazy AF” ninja.
damn…this dude has more arrests than success…….like being arrested doing dumb shit is now his remain claim to fame…smdh….Katt, I’m going to need you to get on the good foot and stop acting like a asshole….
That did cross my mind when you piss off the Hollywood machine they the ramp up the bad press on you with a quickness
This is part for the course for Katt, he knew the risks of putting the elites bought and paid for puppets on blasts.
Modern Lynching.
Kat my friend you done upset “them” again…
I knew after that Wanda Smith mess something would happen… and right after his Emmy win… he’s one of the real ones ?
I definitely will be purchasing a ticket to his next show!
So many brothers and sisters live through it and STILL can’t see it. Consciousness is the exception not the rule. Thank god there are those of us who are conscious.
Katt is Katt and what he said still stands, he’s had a problematic past, and this incident is no different!
We can vividly see Katt’s flaws and missteps, while others are more concealed and or of not of a legal nature, but still flaws!
This will be fodder for his next standup routine, the dog and the uber driver!
Same thing I’m wondering because it wasn’t clear in the write-up.
I second that.. WHET???????
He snorted so much, it “blew his wig back”. That’s a whole lotta blow, he was Scarfacin it!
Free Katt!! I love Katt, and is he 47 or 50 because Katt, said he’s 50, it came straight out of his mouth!
Because he’s 19 felonies with NO convictions. He is never found guilty and he doesn’t seem to be having to make payouts to his “victims”. According to the law, he’s no criminal, he just has lots of misunderstandings lol…. some I believe are orchestrated.
His dog, that the Uber driver didn’t want to carry.
The arrest warrant from Georgia is why he’s being held…. I wonder what that one is for.
19 prior felony arrests? He’s a career criminal
You’re right but what’s sad is a lot of folks are like “oh that’s just Katt being Katt!” But maybe it’s time to grow up because a 50 year old man getting arrested over an Uber and a dog isn’t actually funny or cute.
People will try to explain away anything..
no convictions to date
At all
The limo driver….is also an Uber Driver?
People always want to make excuses for this man. He is the typical loud crazy family member that blames every body else for their troubles and momma and nem making excuses for him. Which means he never has to be accountable for his shit. Katt is not that important where people are internationally taking time, money and resources to make him fall. He does that by himself pretty good. I guess this is K.Hart and T. Haddish fault too?????
they like shut down when you start messing with their money. Dave was called a crackhead that went to Africa to smoke crack lmao, martin Lawrence running through the streets after he was on arseno speaking truth was found running through the street naked and are perfect examples.
Maybe his nephew is an attorney so he keeps it all in the family.
Funny people can sometimes snap.
I love me some Katt but I could always tell something was a little disturbed about him…like what he says holds some truth. He’s like that drunk auntie that’s always fucked up at the family dinners but she will take you down with pure facts slurring and all if you test her lol…..
A combination of drugs and short man complex in full effect!… Smdh
lol… your comment still doesn’t make sense.
Nothing is holding him back.
He’s still making money and is an Emmy winner to boot. At most, those steadily working comedians get BET awards or something silly like that.
Katt Williams is doing better than them. What’s Kevin Hart doing these days? Running marathons?
Yep.
Orchestrated! I will #vouch for nxggxs testing u, intentionally, simply bc u attained any level of success YOU comfortable with. & can #Respect a person/entertainer that defends themselves from the ppl who only want to be slapped instead of getting an autograph /free ticket/tfo/etc
That would be awesome
lol, I don’t ride Uber but every story in the news has been exactly what I imagined ridesharing would result in. & that is the question I ask every time I see the Uber stories: “Can you get out&call another 1?”
But then, I remember that a lot of taxis don’t/didnt pick up ppl they discriminate against (young or “looks” unable to pay or “dangerous”) & wonder if the old cabbies had a point? lol, they’re jumping off bridges & ish now so I guess it rly doesn’t matter what they thought …….
If we need a role model, I nominate Katt. Make them M’s, slap nxggxs who sign up for it & keep ur private life mostly private w/no convictions
Ha! Ur teenage son bring home a 7 figure payday, tour & sell …. he can do this & everybody in the household minus who ever designated to post bond JUMPING anybody who start somn
Exactly. I’ve got a cousin that’s Katt’s stature but broader, and he’s no celebrity, but I swear since we were young he is unnecessarily disrespected by other men because of his size. People always try to test him, then try to call him crazy when that Jamaican come out and he’s ready to kill something. I can only imagine what it’s like for small dudes with money and recognition up against these nobodies trying to get a lawsuit.
I hope it wasn’t a woman.
Time to slow-down BO-BO! I’m praying for him!
Get well Katt. You’re still funnier than Kevin & Tiffany ?
This is why supporting someone who is mentally ill is a no-no!!
yes he is.
I hope it wasn’t a white woman.
FIFY
What does FIFY mean?
fixed it for you
I thought he didn’t have felonies or was it no convictions. His bail is awfully low for a 19-felony black male. Who cares for his 7 kids while he’s locked up?
Thank you
