'Mob Wives' Drita D'Avanzo Cleared! No Rats in Front Door Beatdown

Published | Updated

"Mob Wives" star Drita D'Avanzo is off the hook for kicking her neighbor's ass over a parking spot ... all because the neighbor refused to snitch.

Drita was supposed to appear in a NYC courtroom Wednesday morning in the case, but we've learned the D.A. has declined to prosecute her. We're told the the D.A.'s office dropped the matter because Drita's neighbor, Mary Bratti, refused to cooperate.

It's an interesting twist ... considering there's clear video of Drita and Bratti brawling on Bratti's doorstep.

Drita was arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault after the brawl, but now she's been spared, thanks to mob rules -- not ratting to cops.

'RHOA' Star Porsha Williams Blindsided By Beatdown Video

Published | Updated

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' producers let a giant skeleton out of Porsha Williams' closet at the final reunion show taping ... raw footage of her dark alley assault on pal Jami Ziegler.

We broke the story ... Porsha allegedly attacked Jami at a party in December while being filmed ... all because she didn't like the person Jami brought as her plus one.

Producers told the ladies the cameras didn't capture the fight ... since Jami ran out of the house and down a dark alley where the beatdown occurred ... but turns out it wasn't true.

Our sources say the whole thing was captured on a camera ... notably Porsha throwing some pretty mean punches, and the footage will air in April.

We're told several women on the show want her kicked off since it was her third fight with castmates ... Cynthia, Kenya and now Jami, if you're keeping score.

Porsha knows how to keep the paychecks coming.

Meek Mill Drake's 'Ghostwriter' Is Lying I Never Touched Him

Published | Updated

Meek Mill is calling BS on the guy he calls Drake's ghostwriter ... saying neither he nor his team whupped Quentin Miller's ass.

As we reported, Miller claims Meek and his crew left him bloodied after a run-in at the Bev Hills Nike store. But our sources say Meek's telling friends that story is fabricated, and there's zero evidence of such a run-in.

We're told Meek thinks the proof is no security camera footage has surfaced from the busy Wilshire Ave location. Translation: pics or it didn't happen.

Our sources says Meek thinks Drake masterminded Miller's story ... just to take a shot while he's on house arrest.

Drake's 'Ghostwriter' Meek & His Crew Beat Me Bloody

Published | Updated

Drake and Meek Mill's beef got physically violent when Meek took out his anger on Quentin Miller -- the guy he accused of writing Drake's raps -- by allegedly attacking him in Bev Hills.

Miller claims the beatdown happened at the Nike Store. He's not specific on when, but says it was after the whole feud blew up in Meek's face. You'll recall, Meek attempted to out Miller as the guy who wrote Drizzy's rhyme on "10 Bands."

Miller refused to take full credit and denied ghostwriting, which fueled the fan backlash against Meek.

Check out Miller's clip with VladTV -- he says Meek and his crew, the Dream Chasers, jumped him ... but adds they scored zero hood points, since he's a suburban kid who's hardly the "toughest ni**a."

Published | Updated

Adrien Broner may be done in by instant replay -- 'cause police say they have video from the alleged violent robbery outside of a Cincinnati bowling alley that could sink the boxer.

TMZ Sports has confirmed ... officials have video from outside of the Cincinnati bowling alley -- which they believe will help prove Broner beat up and robbed a man with a gun on January 21st.

Sources connected to the case tell us the video is grainy and dark and you can't see any fighting -- you CAN hear a voice that sounds like Broner demanding, "Give me my money back."

We're told you can also hear people imploring Broner -- "A.B. chill ... A.B. c'mon!"

Broner has been charged with felonious assault and robbery -- and faces serious prison time if convicted.

So far, Broner has not issued a comment on the situation.

THROWIN' THE PUNCH

Katt Williams can't use the "he jumped me first" excuse anymore ... because a new full and uncut video of the fight between him and a minor clearly shows the comedian struck first.

You can see Katt and the kid exchanging words while walking off a soccer field, and the jawing goes on until Katt's up against a wall. Seems pretty obvious the kid was egging on Katt, but it's also clear the comedian got physical.

Katt might still argue he felt threatened -- the kid was inches from his face -- and that's why he threw a punch.

Katt's got a lot on the line -- multiple ongoing court cases and the possibility of having his bail revoked. Police plan to meet with the D.A. Thursday to discuss the case, including the latest videos.

Katt Williams I Punched That Kid 'Cause He Threatened Me

MINOR SCUFFLE

Katt Williams attacked a kid during an Atlanta soccer match because the kid had gotten all up in his business, and aggressively ... so allege sources connected with the comedian, and new video seems to at least partially support his claim.

Katt punched the boy in Gainesville, outside ATL, and it was caught on video. The boy then pounced on Katt, putting him in a rear naked choke hold.

The first video that surfaced shows the punch but almost nothing before. The new video shows the kid and his buddies following Katt, who sits passively against a wall. The kid seems to challenge Katt, accusing him of talking crap.

It seems Katt is trying to diffuse the situation, but the kid orders him to stand. When Katt gets up, the kid approaches him and gets inches from his face. That's when Katt strikes.

As we reported, cops are investigating the incident.

What's more ... the video that surfaced Wednesday (top) shows Katt punching the kid and then the young man puts Katt in a rear naked choke hold. But check out the video below. Sources connected to Katt tell TMZ they believe it clearly shows the video released Wednesday was altered and the kid actually put Katt in a headlock BEFORE the punch.

When you watch the video above, look closely at Katt's hair, which gets messed up when the kid has him on the ground. Katt's hair is also messed up when he punches the kid.

The kid insists Katt punched him first. It's possible, of course, there was a prior punch not captured on video.

MINOR SCUFFLE

9:14 AM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell us the police have reviewed the video and have launched a criminal investigation with Katt as the target. Katt, who is also on bail for multiple assault charges, is currently out on bail but one of the conditions is that he keeps his nose clean. The police are also reviewing the bail order to determine if he violated and whether bail should be revoked.

Katt Williams threw a punch at a kid, but when you watch the video it's clear the kid ends up kicking Katt's ass.

Katt throws the first punch but the victim -- who's reportedly in 7th grade -- takes matters into his own hands and puts Katt in a rear naked choke.

Katt was in Gainesville, an hour outside Atlanta handing out cash ... it's unclear how things went south.

Williams has been arrested several times over the last month for this kind of behavior. Cops tell us so far ... no one has called to complain.

As for the offer to fight it out once and for all ... Smith says "the street in me" wanted to handle it one way ... but the "grown man" in him convinced him to go another direction.

Smart move ...

Jared Fogle Inmates Outraged Prison Made Him 'Teacher's Pet' ... Before He Even Arrived

Published | Updated

Jared Fogle was almost guaranteed a beatdown in prison, because guards made it clear to the other inmates he was the teacher's pet.

We've learned prison staff told the inmates before Fogle arrived at Englewood Correctional facility that he would be arriving in late December and that no one should mess with him.

Our sources say the staff made it clear ... anyone who attacked or harassed Fogle would be dealt with harshly.

That was enough for Steven Nigg, the 60-year-old inmate who beat Fogle up weeks after his arrival. We're told Nigg resented Fogle because the staff made him seem "untouchable" ... so he touched him.

TMZ broke the story -- Jared was pushed to the ground and beaten back in January. Steven Nigg was thrown in solitary for the attack.

Jared Fogle Beaten and Bloodied in Prison Yard Ambush

Published | Updated

Jared Fogle got a surprise beatdown in federal prison from an inmate who has major issues with child molesters ... TMZ has learned.

According to docs, Fogle got jumped in the rec yard at Englewood prison in Colorado back on January 29, and it was not much of a fight. An inmate named Steven Nigg pushed Fogle down and then unloaded a barrage of punches to his face.

Nigg, who's in for a weapons charge, left Fogle with a bloody nose, swollen face and scratches on his neck. 60-year-old Nigg was also injured -- a small cut on his left hand from delivering the whuppin'. Prison officials put Nigg in solitary as punishment.

We spoke to Nigg's family and they're not surprised. We're told Steven's pissed because so many child sex predators are housed in the low security facility, and Fogle was just the last straw.

Jared's attorney had no comment. We don't wanna say karma, but ... oops.

PUSH COMES TO SHOVE

It's been 10 days since the Brock Osweiler pizza shop incident ... but the NFL is still not saying whether or not it's investigating the Houston Texans QB for his role that night.

The moment in question is right before Brock gets pushed from behind ... when he used his arm to physically move one of the women at the shop who was in a verbal altercation with his wife.

Some people (including high profile media members) say Brock crossed the line ... others believe he used a reasonable amount of force to keep the peace.

We've been calling the NFL to find out if they were investigating the incident -- and were told, "We don't have a comment."

As we previously reported, cops were on scene for the incident -- but NO ONE was arrested.
