OAKLAND, Calif. —
Just days after his arrest following a confrontation on his tour van, comedian Katt Williams’ show at Oakland’s Oracle Arena ended early Friday night in a profanity laced rant that had fans demanding their money back.
Williams was just 10 minutes into his show when he began a joke-less rant that ended with him challenging a heckler to a fight and his own security team removing him from the stage.
Tickets for the event ranged in price from $33 to $94 plus service fees. Williams abrupt departure left fans demanding refunds.
"It was the weirdest thing I've ever seen in my life," Erick Lucero, who was working on the arena floor as a security guard, told the San Jose Mercury News.
The meltdown came in the wake of an 18-year-old Berkeley man filing a lawsuit against Williams seeking unspecified damages for an incident in Oakland in which he alleges the comedian assaulted him.
Delvahn Mosley-Davis charges in his suit, filed in Alameda County Superior Court, that Williams, 41, punched him, hit him over the head with a bottle and pointed a gun at him.
Pamela Price, Mosley-Davis' attorney, said one of Williams' bodyguards also punched Mosley-Davis.
Price said the attack occurred in Williams' RV tour van in the parking lot of the Courtyard Marriott Hotel in the 900 block of Broadway about 8 p.m. Wednesday and alleged that after it was over Williams and the guard forced him out of the van into the street despite knowing that Mosley-Davis was injured and disoriented.
The attorney said Mosley-Davis suffered injuries to his head, neck, arms, torso and face and was taken to Highland Hospital in Oakland, where he was treated and released.
The suit says that in addition to his injuries, Mosley-Davis suffered "severe mental anguish and emotional distress."
Price said she's also seeking a court order to impound Williams' tour van before he leaves town to perform in Fresno on Saturday night because she thinks it contains blood evidence and the weapons she alleges that Williams used to "threaten and assault" Mosley-Davis.
Oakland police spokeswoman Johnna Watson said Williams was arrested and questioned after the incident but was later released and doesn't face any charges at this time. She said the incident is still under investigation.
