Comedian Katt Willliams hit Atlanta this past weekend and stirred up quite a bit of controversy with his recent comments about fellow funnyman Kevin Hart being an industry ‘puppet’ (click HERE if you missed that).

Katt has been in trouble more times that I can count and apparently the controversial comedian couldn’t cross state lines without leaving another mugshot for our gallery.

Williams was arrested after he ALLEGEDLY hit a store clerk earlier today and it’s not the first time he’s battled with a cashier…

Read details of Katt’s latest arrest below…

According to TMZ, Katt Williams is sitting in a Georgia jail cell after getting busted for hitting a store clerk.

Police tell us Katt was arrested Monday at a pool supply store in Gainesville, GA. Officers say Katt had a verbal altercation with an employee and it escalated when he threw an object … and then punched the employee.

Katt, who’s had his fair share of arrests, assumed the position — cops say he was on the ground with his hands behind his back … ready to be cuffed when they arrived.

He’s being held on $5,000 bail.

Maybe Katt woulda been a free man if he kept his mouth shut about Kevin Hart. Let the conspiracy theories begin!
