BOSSIP received the scoop from Katt’s attorney on the reason behind the arrest:

“The case is still under investigation. We believe this is a…… contract dispute. Katt is actually leasing the property he has been accused of burglarizing as well as trespassing on. We are sure this will be worked out.”

What is Katt doing? Katt’s life is beginning to mimic a funny movie.

    Atlanta, Georgia (CNN) — Comedian Katt Williams was arrested on burglary and criminal tresp***** charges in a west Georgia community early Monday, according to police.

    A police report said Williams, 38, used a crowbar to force his way into a home in a rural area about six miles west of Newnan, Georgia, late Sunday.

    About $3,500 worth of jewelry and collectable coins were stolen, according to the report by the Coweta County, Georgia, Sheriff’s Department.

    Williams, 38, smiled broadly while posing for a mug shot photo at the Coweta County jail.

    His first court appearance is set for 4 p.m. ET Monday, when a magistrate will decide if Williams is eligible for bond, said Deborah Matthews, a Coweta County magistrate court spokeswoman.

    Williams’ manager declined to comment.

    Williams began his career as a stand-up comic, gaining attention in 1999 for comedy club appearances. Television appearances on the BET Network led to more success.

    His 2006 HBO special “Katt Williams: Pimp Chronicles Pt.1″ raised his profile.

    He has acted in several movies, including Eddie Murphy’s “Norbit.”

    His often raunchy style has drawn comparisons to comedy legend Richard Pryor.

    His DVD set — “It’s Pimpin’ Pimpin’,” — is scheduled for release this Wednesday, according to his Web site.

    @ Tropical English–

    Thank you for the correct info.

  21. Tropical English

    Katt’s lawyer, William Briggs, told TMZ that Williams was a guest, not a burglar, and that the false accusations are the result of a disagreement.

    Bossip, who in the hellllll did you say you talked to??

    Apparently it’s not a misunerstanding if he’s being held and charged. If he was a guest at that residence someone could have easily cleared the situation up.

    Atlanta, Georgia (CNN) — Comedian Katt Williams was a guest — not a burglar — at the Georgia home he is now accused of breaking into with a crowbar, his lawyer told CNN.

    The house, on a horse farm in rural west Georgia, is owned by record producer Barry Hankerson, according to the police report.

    Williams has been living in the Coweta County, Georgia, home for nearly a month while filming a movie produced by Hankerson, attorney William Briggs said.

    Williams, 38, was arrested early Monday after an employee of Hankerson’s — Daniel Paul Broach — called police and reported Williams had broken into the home with a crowbar, the police report said.

    A Coweta County magistrate set bail at $40,000 in a hearing Monday afternoon, which lawyers were working to post, Briggs said.

    The police report said about $3,500 in jewelry and collectable coins were stolen, which his lawyer said “we absolutely deny.”

    “Mr. Williams wears more than that in jewelry on his person,” Briggs said.

    Briggs said Williams argued with the employee, prompting the burglary report.

    Hankerson spoke with investigators Monday afternoon to *****ure them Williams had his permission to stay indefinitely in the home he was accused of burglarizing, Briggs said.

    Williams smiled broadly while posing for a mug shot photo at the Coweta County jail early Monday.
