The son of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star NeNe Leakeswas arrested in Georgia last night ... after cops say he tried to give himself the ol' 5-finger discount during a shopping trip.
According to officials in Gwinnett County, Bryson Bryant was charged with shoplifting and a probation violation around 9 PM local time last night.
It's not his first brush with the law ... Bryson -- who has appeared on the reality show with his mother in the past -- was arrested last year for marijuana possession.
So far, no comment from NeNe.
UPDATE: Law enforcement sources tell us Bryant is accused of jacking two Mach 3 razors from a Walmart .. and was busted by the Walmart security team.
We're told the 2 razors are priced at $14 a piece.
NeNe Leakes is firing back at Donald Trump-- telling TMZ she "feels good" about bailing on "Celebrity Apprentice" ...because Trump disrespected her in-front of and behind the cameras.
Leakes tells us her feud with Star Jones was REAL -- and says she was legitimately upset with Trump when Donald changed the teams on last night's show to "accommodate" the former "View" chatterbox.
NeNe tells us, "Trump was doing things to accommodate Star and not me."
Leakes says she felt producers were constantly trying to "provoke" her ... noting, "All of the manipulating ... was very toxic. It was a very toxic situation."
She adds, "I'm not a quitter or a loser ... I had to walk out of the show for my own sanity."
"I feel good about leaving and I don't regret it. I don't believe you need to act like that for charity."
It all hit the fan when Donald Trump reordered the teams on the show ... after Star told The Donald she couldn't work with her arch-enemy NeNe anymore.
An obviously FURIOUS Leakes stormed off to her hotel and told Trump, "You can't just accommodate her ... that's not fair."
NeNe then explained, "Mr. Trump bought into her bulls**t and i dont have to stay here and put up with BS to raise money for my charity. The best thing for me to do is just walk away."
Later in the show, Trump added, "The fact is she left ... she quit, she gave up. To you, NeNe, I say, you're fired. And you’re a quitter. And Star Jones kicked your ass whether you like it or not."

UPDATE: Sources close to NeNe tell us ... the reality star is adamantly denying that she had a "tantrum" ... explaining that the makeup artist simply wasn't experienced with African-American hair and makeup. We're told NeNe insists that she thanked the makeup artist for her efforts, but she ultimately decided to do her makeup herself.
The new cast of "Celebrity Apprentice" has only been together for 9 days -- but a diva has already emerged ... and sources tell TMZ, it's NeNe Leakes from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."
According to our spies -- NeNe has already earned a reputation for being the "difficult one" ... after an incident over her makeup this weekend.
We're told NeNe threw a tantrum because she hated the way her makeup artists dolled her up for the opening interviews -- so the "Housewives" star made them start over ... but she still wasn't satisfied.
After two makeovers, NeNe ultimately called the makeup crew off -- grabbed some tools and did the whole thing by herself.
Wonder if David Cassidy is having the same problem.
NeNe Leakes is pimping her book all over NYC today -- but she put her hatred of FOX ahead of book sales this morning when she refused to go on a local TV show.
The "Real Housewife of Atlanta" star was supposed to be a guest on FOX 5's "Good Day New York" to talk about her new book, "Never Make the Same Mistake Twice." Sources on the set tell TMZ that she realized it was a FOX show just a few minutes before her appearance.
She bailed, according to witnesses, telling people she hates the network. We're told it might have something to do with a FOX Atlanta report that didn't paint NeNe and her husband in a very positive light.
