Katt Williams

Oft-arrested comedian Katt Williams has avoided jail and was sentenced to community service for his low-speed police chase in Sacramento, Calif.

The Scary Movie 5 star pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of evading police and was sentenced to 180 days in jail ... with a major catch.

Half of those days were converted to 420 hours of community service, while the other half of the term was stayed, so he remains free, E! News confirms.

Williams was also given three years' informal probation and ordered to report back to Sacramento Superior Court on June 14 to show proof of this.

Chris Brown recently got into hot water for allegedly not reporting community service fully, so it stands to reason a judge will seek to verify it.

Katt Williams is making news once again - but NOT for getting arrested!

Instead, the trouble-making comedian is agreeing with Mayor Vincent Gray, who said earlier this week, the moniker "Redskins" for Washington's professional football team should maybe be changed.

"Do you know how racist that is?" Katt said to TMZ of the name. "That would be like saying the Chinese Yellowskins or the Compton Blackskins.

"Can you please not keep disrespecting the people we already admit we did wrong to?"

Do you agree? Are the Washington REDSKINS offensive to Native Americans?

Katt Williams arrested in L.A. last night after blowing off a court date in Sacramento.

Law enforcement sources say the LAPD was aware Katt was a wanted man and when detectives spotted him outside his L.A. home, they placed him under arrest.

Stop the presses, but reprint the same headline we've seen multiple times over the past couple months: Katt Williams has been arrested.

Katt Williams was arrested at a Subway restaurant last night while his good pal Suge Knight was getting a manicure / pedicure at a nearby nail salon ... seriously.

The comedian was involved in some kind of disturbance at the West Hollywood Subway. Obviously, Katt claims he did nothing wrong whatsoever.

The drama began while the comedian was waiting in front of Subway while Suge Knight, his friend and manager, was getting a mani-pedi nearby.

Sorry, that part of the story is beyond hilarious.

Katt Williams has an explanation at least one of the many bizarre incidents he's been involved in lately - slapping Target employee Forrest Liebenberg in the face.

Increasingly erratic alleged comedian Katt Williams hit up a Target in Sacramento last weekend ... and hit an employee in the face for what looks like no reason at all.

There's no audio, so we don't know what was said, but Katt Williams' slap appears to come out of nowhere; the Target guy's doesn't look like he's looking to start $h!t ...

Katt Williams Slap

Williams was on the run from the cops at the time the slap went down. He gets in trouble with the law a fair amount, so often it's hard to keep the arrests straight.

After the slap, the employee pulls out his phone and calls police, who eventually arrested Katt, who attempted to make his getaway in an electric cart ... seriously.
