Katt Williams was arrested again at his Los Angeles home on Friday for felony child endangerment. While the full details of criminal cases involving children are not typically revealed to the public, it is believed that officials from the city of Los Angeles found marijuana and a number of firearms at the stand-up comedian's home.
It's unknown why the city of Los Angeles felt the need to raid the stand-up comedian's home, but Katt Williams' latest arrest apparently took place around the same time the world learned that he'd been hit with a $4 million tax lien?by the IRS. Officials from the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services have not announced a reason for launching the investigation at this time.

Katt Williams has found himself in a series of increasingly worse legal situations in recent weeks which began with the stand-up comedian running from Sacramento police last month. Williams followed that incident up with an assault of a Target employee, a backstage scuffle with fans, and a bar fight that earned him criminal charges in Seattle as well.
Apparently not finished, Williams was detained again earlier this month?outside of a Subway in West Hollywood, though he was not arrested during that encounter with law enforcement. He and tour manage Suge Knight did each leave with a ticket (multiple in Knight's case) for their troubles though.
When Williams was detained outside of Subway, it was noted that he had the proper authorization for medical marijuana and a firearm on his person at that time, which certainly casts some doubt on the reports that marijuana and/or a weapon(s) could have been at fault for the charges. Then again, there's just no telling how the stand-up comedian stores such items in his home, and his methods may not have seemed sufficient to city officials.
After being released from Van Nuys' LAPD Valley Jail on Friday night, Williams defended both his marijuana and firearm possession in a short statement.
"If the police come in and raid my place and break into my gun boxes, you're gonna find guns," Williams told a TMZ reporter, adding, "I'm not in a gang, what difference does it make?"
"How do you keep kids safe without guns?"
One thing's for sure, Katt Williams won't find any pity in the online community:
Something tells us that a late Friday night follow-up fight?at the club isn't going to win Katt Williams any new supporters either.
