A Seattle judge issued two arrest warrants for the comedian after he failed to show up for his arraignment on Dec. 12.

Comic Katt Williams had another dust up with police Thursday night. This time it happened in West Hollywood.

Katt was hanging at a Subway Restaurant waiting for his pal Suge Knight to get a manicure when he says eight cops descended on him. He was put in the back of a squad car, but eventually let go.

TMZ caught it all on video. “Suddenly there’s all these officers, and then they find my weed and my guns,” he said. “Eventually they let me go because, you know, I’m Teflon kitty.”

Williams has a medical marijuana license and a concealed weapons permit, so there was no cause to hold him.

There is still a warrant out for Williams in Washington. A Seattle judge issued two arrest warrants for the comedian after he failed to show up for his arraignment on Dec. 12.

Williams is accused of hitting a man with a microphone at one of his shows at the Paramount theater in Seattle and getting aggressive with police after causing a disturbance at the World Sports Grille in Seattle.
