 SALEM, Ore. (AP) — Comedian Katt Williams has been arrested on suspicion of assaulting a hired driver during an argument about taking him and his dog from the Portland, Oregon, airport to a performance in the city. 
 
 Williams, who was in jail Sunday, came to Portland to perform in Nick Cannon's "Wild 'N Out" comedy improv show Friday night. 
 
 The town car driver had swelling and cuts on his face and was treated at a hospital, according to Port of Portland police. The comedian, 47, whose real name is Micah Williams, left in another vehicle and was arrested Saturday. 
 
 Williams has been charged with assault in the fourth degree, and an arraignment is scheduled for Monday. He also was arrested for an out-of-state warrant from Georgia. 
 
 A publicist for Williams, whose comedy specials have appeared on HBO and Netflix, didn't immediately respond to messages seeking comment. A jail official and a spokesman for the district attorney's office said they didn't know if the comedian had an attorney who could speak on his behalf. 
 
 The incident happened at Atlantic Aviation, which handles private planes at Portland International Airport, police said. An employee who answered the phone Sunday said her boss had told workers not to discuss the case. 
 
 Williams won the Emmy Award last month for guest actor in a comedy series for his appearance in "Atlanta," a TV show about two cousins in Atlanta's rap scene. 
 
 His arrest comes more than a year after Williams was sentenced to three years of probation in Los Angeles after pleading no contest to stealing a celebrity photographer's camera. Prosecutors said in April 2017 that he also needed to attend anger management classes. 
 
 In 2016, Williams got five years of probation after pleading no contest in Georgia to assault and battery tied to allegations he threatened a bodyguard while an acquaintance beat him with a baseball bat. ||||| An arrest warrant has been issued for Katt Williams stemming from a punching incident the comedian was involved in last week. 
 
 Williams, 42, faces disorderly conduct and bond violation charges in Georgia after he got into a scuffle with 17-year-old Luke Wash at a soccer game in a Gainesville neighborhood. Previous reports said that Wash was a seventh-grader.

 A Hall County judge issued arrest warrants for both Williams and Wash after the charges were filed and Gainesville police said that the fight is a violation of Williams' conditional bond from his arrest earlier this month for allegedly assaulting one of his bodyguards, TMZ reported.

 Williams' rep did not immediately respond to The Times' request for comment. 
 
 The altercation erupted shortly after the "Scary Movie 5" actor joined a pickup soccer game at an apartment complex, according to local TV stations WSB-TV, and Wash was on the opposing team. 
 
 Cellphone video of the incident shows the two hurling insults at each other and Williams throwing the first punch at Wash. The youngster then tackles the comic, bringing him to the ground. Several witnesses said that the teen provoked the entertainer with trash talk and disrespect, WSB reported. 
 
 Wash was taken into police custody on Monday afternoon and was held on a $1,300 bond because in Georgia 17-year-old offenders are considered adults, TMZ said.

 "They both played roles in this altercation. They both should have known. You'd think Mr. Williams, [a person] of his age, would know better than to pick a fight with a 17-year-old, but they both played active roles in this case," Gainesville police Capt. Kevin Holbroke told WSB-TV. 
 
 On Friday, Williams expounded on his reasons for punching Wash during an expletive-laden stand-up routine at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. The comedian said that he thought Wash was about 19 years old. 
 
 "He was saying [expletives] the whole time," Williams said. 
 
 "He talked... about me the whole game. ... My teammates are trying to let me know something ain't right." 
 
 Williams said that he walked away from the game to ask Wash what all the trash talk was about and Wash retorted with a "What are you gonna do about it?" 
 
 "I said listen, you know I'm in trouble with the ... law," he continued. "Just understand I can take your ... around this ... corner. I will explain to you you don't talk to grown [men] like that." 
 
 Williams said he tried to teach the kid a lesson, with the intention of only throwing one punch, and that's when the incident escalated and Wash took down the comedian.

– Comedian Katt Williams was arrested Monday on charges that he beat up an employee at a Georgia pool supply store, but that's far from the only trouble he's allegedly in recently: At a press conference Wednesday afternoon, an attorney accused Williams and his entourage of attacking five women who were in Atlanta for the weekend, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. The women say they saw Williams on the street around 2:30am Sunday and asked him to take a picture with them, but he got upset when they started filming him. He allegedly punched one woman and pointed a gun at the entire group. Police responded, and Williams told them the women were actually filming him without his consent and even grabbed a chain from around his neck, which he says is what started the fight; no one was arrested, but the incident is still under investigation. The lawyer also accused Williams of stealing the women's cellphones and says police should have done a more thorough investigation. Williams is also suspected of misdemeanor battery in Los Angeles on Tuesday, TMZ reports. Police say he got in a fight with onlookers at a car crash and punched somebody; Williams says he went to the scene of the accident to help, but the onlookers started making fun of him. When he told them to be quiet, he says, one of them struck him and he was just defending himself when he hit back. Williams had been released from jail in the Atlanta case, and was in LA Tuesday to appear in court for yet another past incident (perhaps this one?), TMZ reported prior to the car accident incident.
