Former rap impresario Marion “Suge” Knight and comedian Micah “Katt” Williams were arrested and charged Wednesday after allegedly stealing a camera from a photographer in Beverly Hills last month, officials said.
Knight, 49, and Williams, 43, were each charged with one count of robbery in connection with the Sept. 5 incident, the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office said.
Knight was arrested Wednesday in Las Vegas; Williams at an Inglewood court house where he was due for an arraignment in a separate assault case.
Beverly Hills police Sgt. Max Subin said the investigation began Sept. 5 after Knight and Williams walked out of a studio and came across a photographer.
The pair allegedly chased the woman down an alley, where Williams grabbed the woman’s camera “forcibly,” Subin said. She sustained minor injuries in the incident.
Police quickly arrived on scene, Subin said, but Knight and Williams were already gone.
