“I did not steal when I was homeless, if I did not steal when I was starving, then I certainly will not steal $3,500 worth of jewelry while you are wearing $250,000 worth of jewelry,” Williams explained in an interview. “They misunderstood. They thought that I was an average typical negro. I am no such a thing. I don’t talk like it. I don’t act like it. I don’t walk like it and I don’t hang with people that do…Now if there is some crime that I committed then I will be locked up but if not you are assaulting someone that shouldn’t be assaulted and I think you are picking on the wrong one…They said I was bankrupt. The same day they said I was bankrupt I got a check for Pimpin Pimpin for 1.4 million dollars. I haven’t cashed it. I still got it! Then last week Katt Williams Pimpadelic sold 1.6 million dollars. I’m trying to figure out how a n*gga with 3 million dollars is stealing $3500 worth of jewelry in Coweta County, Georgia, while he rides around in a Bentley. I don’t understand it.” (Rasha Entertainment)

Comedian Katt Williams was arrested outside of Atlanta, Georgia overnight, following an incident that resulted in charges of burglary and criminal trespassing.

A deputy at the Coweta County jail, about 40 miles south of Atlanta, has confirmed that Williams remains in custody this morning (November 9).

No additional details about the incident were released.

The arrest comes a year after Williams was arrested in New York City on weapons charges.

Last year, Williams, was in New York for his debut performance at Carnegie Hall, which was scheduled for November 6.

In the early morning hours of that Thursday, however, NYPD officers pulled him over for driving a car without license plates.

Upon searching the car, police discovered a gun and proceeded to arrest Williams and others in his entourage.

The following week, the comedian allegedly underwent a mental health evaluation for possible hospital commitment after run-ins with city and county officials in Sumter, South Carolina.

On July 23, the New York City district attorney?s office moved to dismiss Williams? gun charges because they could not ?prove the charges beyond a reasonable doubt.?

The 36-year-old actor/comedian, born Micah Williams, is scheduled for an arraignment today, where a magistrate is expected to set a bond amount for his release.
