Comedian and actor Katt Williams has bailed himself out of a New York jail Thursday night, just in time for a show at Carnegie Hall.
Williams, who was with 10 other people in his crew, was arrested for weapons possession, the New York Daily News reports. Cops found three guns in the comedian’s Cadillac Escalade and Mercedes bus.
Williams, 37, posted bond, set at $250,000, at Manhattan Criminal Court and ran off to a sold-out show at Carnegie where fans waited half an hour for his arrival.
"I'm not moving at my usual pace," he told the audience after he arrived to the venue. "I just got out of jail 35 minutes ago."

Hey, wait a minute... Haven't we heard this story before? "Katt Williams arrested on gun charges..."
I expect this behavior from rappers, but now comedians? What gives? Who makes $20 million a year and carries gunSSSS? Hell, you can hire any thug from the street to carry a gun for you for $100.
