A video has gone viral of Katt Williams sucker-punching a teenager and then getting his ass whooped.
It’s the latest of a long string of incidents showcasing the downward spiral of a once popular comedian.
Early Wednesday morning, a series of videos went viral of comedian Katt Williams first sucker-punching a 7th grader, and then being tackled by the teenager.
People took to Twitter to poke fun at Katt Williams:

It’s just the latest in the ongoing Katt Williams tragedy.
A lawsuit was filed against the 44-year-old actor and stand-up comedian last week in Los Angeles Superior Court by Jamila Majesty, who claims that, after she used a private bathroom, Williams assaulted her along with a group of other women.
From The Daily Beast:
The suit alleges Williams “slapped [Majesty] several times and punched her in the ribs in addition to beating her with the group of women… As a result of the beating [Majesty] suffered broken ribs, split tendons, scarring to her face, and other extreme physical and emotional damage.” Majesty is suing Williams for assault, battery, false imprisonment, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
And there’s more. Less than two weeks ago, Katt Williams sucker-punched a man onstage at a Beanie Sigel concert in Philadelphia, starting a brawl that left the comedian bloody on stage.
Katt Williams became popular during the MTV series Wild ‘n Out, and his wild stand-up comedy performances. He was on the fast track to replace Eddie Murphy’s comedic spot. However, law trouble and felonious assaults left the comedian in a tough position. In 2011, Katt Williams and a group of three women assaulted a tractor driver, throwing rocks at the man. In 2012, Katt Williams was accused of punching his former assistant, beating an 18-year old with a bottle, getting into a bar fight in Seattle, and he had his four children placed in protective custody after the LAPD found several “guns and illegal drugs in the house that created a safety hazard for the kinds,” according to TMZ.
To add insult to injury, Katt Williams is still facing a robbery charge stemming from an incident in 2014 where he and Suge KNight allegedly stole a female paparazzo’s camera in Beverly Hills. Not to mention the fact that Katt Williams was arrested in Georgia after being accused of punching an employee in a pool supply store. When police arrived they found Katt Williams “lying on the ground with his hands behind his back as though he was ready to go to jail,” according to reports.
