Who: Country music star Morgan Wallen, 30, and an unnamed individual.

What: Wallen was arrested and charged with three felony counts of reckless endangerment and one misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct.

Where: Chief’s Bar, located at 108 3rd Avenue South, Nashville, Tennessee, a popular venue in the city’s downtown entertainment district.

Why: According to the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, Wallen was involved in a disturbance at the rooftop bar. Witnesses reported he became agitated, threw the chair over the edge, and then fled the scene before being apprehended. Law enforcement stated the chair landed near two police officers on patrol, though no injuries were reported.

Outcome: Wallen was released from custody on a $15,250 bond. A court date has not yet been set. This legal development follows previous public controversies for the artist, including a 2021 racial slur incident. Legal experts say the felony charges carry a potential sentence of up to six years in prison if convicted.
