Georgia resident
Katt Williams can't escape trouble.
Over the weekend, he was arrested yet again, this time after being accused of assaulting a driver in Portland because the chauffeur wouldn’t let William’s dog sit in the passenger seat.
The chauffeur has already sued for damages.According to TMZ, he remains in a Portland jail. He missed a court date last month in Georgia and has a warrant out for his arrest.
The Emmy-winning comedian who once headlined Philips (now State Farm) Arena was chased last month into a supermarket after allegedly verbally threatening V-103 host
Wanda Smith.
He told the cops Smith’s husband pointed a gun at him.
