Katt Williams Arrested After Allegedly Beating Bodyguard [THUG LIFE]
The drama continues for Katt Williams. The comedian is behind bars, yet again, in Georgia, the New York Daily News reports.
The Hall County sheriff said in a news release states that the 42-year-old was booked Tuesday afternoon after allegedly beating down one of his own bodyguards after the man refused to
engage in criminal activity as directed by Williams.
Jail records show that he was booked on charges of aggravated assault, false imprisonment and terroristic threats. According to the site,
Bodyguard Corey Dixon was taken to Williams house late last month and beaten with a baseball bat and choked by 24-year-old Tatiana Smith, the release says. Williams himself also threatened to kill the bodyguard during the attack, authorities say. A search warrant executed at Williams’ home on Lake Breeze Lane in Gainesville uncovered marijuana and several guns, according to authorities.
Smith was also arrested Tuesday, records show, on charges of aggravated assault, possession of marijuana and possession of Alprazolam. Another woman, 40-year-old Lena Smith, has been arrested and charged with felony possession of marijuana. All three are being held in jail without bond. A committal hearing is set for 2 p.m. Wednesday, the sheriff’s office said.
As previously reported, over the weekend footage surfaced of Williams involved in a brawl at a Beanie Siegel concert in Philadelphia.
Earlier today, Beanie took to Instagram, defending Williams who had gifted him with a car for his birthday. Click here for the backstory. Williams’ camp has yet to comment.
