The REAL Story Behind Katt Williams' Arrest!!!
As you have probably heard by now, actor and comedian Katt Williams was arrested and now is still behind bars in Atlanta after police said they arrested the entertainer for breaking into a home and stealing thousands of dollars worth of jewelry and coins.
Williams, is charged with burglary and criminal trespassing, according to Coweta County Sheriff's Office Maj. James Yarbrough.
A Coweta County magistrate set bond at more than $41,000 Monday afternoon, and as of this writing is still behind bars preparing to be released.
Yarbrough said the Sunday night incident happened at a home in Newnan, about 38 miles southwest of Atlanta. Yarbrough said the victim — identified in a police report as Daniel Broach — called police around 9 p.m. to report the comedian broke into his home and stole items. You may have also heard that Williams had a crowbar when he entered and is accused of taking $3,555 in jewelry and collectable coins.
Now here's what REALLY happened; Williams was a GUEST of the home and wandered off to another part of the home, and the alarm went off and the police were called to the scene. After a confrontation with the police and Williams trying to explain being at the home for rest and relaxation (he has been working on a film for the past 3 weeks) the police were bothered by the fact that the alarm went off. Since there was no immediate explanation of the alarm sounding, the police decided to arrest Williams at the scene. Williams was also with a couple of others who were present at the time of the arrest and more details of this are sure to surface soon. As of this writing we we discovered that Williams is the one who called the police, but we are trying to confirm that.
Anyway, there will be more details as this story develops.

Re: Katt Williams Arrested for Burglary
ATLANTA (CBS/AP) Comedian and rapper Katt Williams was released on bond Monday night after he was arrested for breaking into a home and stealing thousands of dollars worth of jewelry and coins.
Williams said he was staying in suburban Atlanta while filming a movie about President Barack Obama.
As Williams emerged from the county jail, he called the alleged burglary "a misunderstanding between me and two stupid detectives."
Bond had been set at $41,150.
The Atlanta-Journal Constitution reported the entertainer was mobbed by about 50 excited fans before departing in a van filled with friends and associates.
Williams, who police say is 38, is charged with burglary and criminal trespassing, according to Coweta County Sheriff's Officer Maj. James Yarbrough.
Williams, whose real name is Micah S. Katt Williams, is known for his roles in the movies "Friday After Next" and "Norbit." His comedy DVD, "Katt Williams: Pimpadelic," was no. 8 in the nation for sales during the week of Oct. 30, according to Nielsen/VideoScan.
Maj. Yarbrough said the Sunday night incident happened at a home in Newnan, about 40 miles southwest of Atlanta. An employee — identified in a police report as Daniel Broach — who works at the estate where the comedian is staying called police around 9 p.m. to report a break-in at a guesthouse on the property.
Williams reportedly had a crowbar when he entered and is accused of taking $3,555 in jewelry and collectable coins.
He said he was staying at producer Barry Hankerson's Coweta estate while in town filming a movie about President Obama.
The actor told Coweta County Magistrate Judge Joseph Wyatt he was "in the middle of a birthday party" when arrested.
"I'm one of the most honorable people in my profession," Williams said.

Lately the entertainer has gained as much attention for criminal troubles as for his quips.
He was briefly jailed in November 2008 after New York police said officers discovered three guns in Williams' car after pulling him over for driving without a license plate.
Manhattan prosecutors dropped weapons charges in July after running into problems proving their case.
A judge sentenced Williams to three years of probation in 2006 after he pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor count of carrying a concealed firearm.
Authorities had arrested Williams on Nov. 6 at Los Angeles International Airport after finding a gun in his briefcase.
Williams lives in Woodland Hills, California.
