Comedian Katt
Williams has been arrested in northern California on a felony warrant related
to a police chase.
The Sacramento Bee reports (http://bit.ly/UNq5QW ) that
Williams was arrested Friday night in Dunnigan, about 25 miles north of
Sacramento, by Yolo County deputies.
The paper says he was released from the county jail Saturday
after posting bail.
The sheriff's department confirmed Williams' arrest late
Saturday, but staffers on duty didn't have details. A spokesman for the
comedian didn't immediately return a call and email.
The California Highway Patrol says Williams fled officers on
a three-wheeled motorcycle on Nov. 25 after being spotted driving on a downtown
Sacramento sidewalk.
The CHP said Williams was asked to stop and refused, leading
to the pursuit.
The CHP says Williams nearly hit five people during the
chase, which police ended for safety reasons.
