Katt Williams Arrested On Gun Charges… Again

Comedian Katt Williams was arrested on weapons charges Thursday, November 6, 2008. Scheduled to perform later that night, Williams and his ten person posse, did a little window shopping to pass the time. Unfortunately, his red Escalade was parked with no license plate and authorities approached the vehicle to determine who the legal owner was.

To their surprise, they found guns in plain sight and moved to arrest Williams when he emerged from a shop and claimed the Escalade as well as a Mercedes.

He did, however, post bail and make good on his committment to perform in front of a sold out audience only an hour later than he was scheduled to do so.

Some time into his act Williams joked, “I’m not moving at my usual pace. I just got out of jail 35 minutes ago.”

KS EXCLUSIVE: THE SOURCE EVICTED!

The SOURCE, once hip-hop’s undisputed biblical monthly manuscript, was formally evicted from its Manhattan offices yesterday and unfortunately, this isn’t the first time the publication has been without a home during its hallowed existence. In December of 2005, the magazine was forced to move its offices over reported financial issues inherited by Founders Dave Mays and Ray “Benzino” Scott. Then, in 2006 Mays and Benzino’s were officially terminated from their posts as the SOURCE superiors.

Granted, the first “move” was quickly resolved and the staff was compensated just the same as it had been prior to the shake up. This time around however, a quick turnaround isn’t so certain.

“They’re going through a little situation and hopefully they can turn it around,” says Michael “Ice-Blue” Harris, CEO of Day 1 Media Group and former SOURCE Music Editor . “I ain’t gon’ front, the last two issues looked real decent. But at the same time, I know a lot of people still haven’t been paid since the new ‘administration’ took over. It’s basically like a 360 degree effect. Writers didn’t get paid and it comes back to  bite you in the ass.”
