Country music icon Morgan Wallen was allegedly arrested and charged with three felony counts early Monday morning after an incident at Eric Church’s Nashville bar.
Wallen, 30, was reportedly arrested in downtown Nashville after witnesses say he threw a chair off the sixth-story roof of Church’s Broadway-based Chief’s Bar, according to Billboard. Wallen’s attorney, Worrick Robinson allegedly confirmed his client’s arrest, saying that “At 10:53p Sunday evening Morgan Wallen was arrested in downtown Nashville for reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct. He is cooperating fully with authorities.”
Two Metro Nashville Police Department officers were standing on the street below the bar when the chair crashed to the ground just feet from them, according to WTVF. Bar staff, witnesses, and security camera footage allegedly showed Wallen as the culprit in the situation. Some said Wallen was laughing after he launched the furniture.
Wallen was arrested and charged shortly after midnight, Billboard noted. He was charged with three counts of reckless endangerment, danger to the public, and disorderly conduct.
He posted a $15,250 bond around 3:30am and was released. The weekend marked the opening night of Church’s new bar, news of which received light coverage until the alleged incident with Wallen.
Calls to Wallen’s attorney were not immediately returned.
This is an evolving story. Please check back for updates.
>> some guy who threw a chair off a building who allegedly can also play guitar?
“Drifter can you make folks cry when you play and sing?
Have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues?
Can you bend them guitar strings?”
He said, “Boy can you make folks feel what you feel inside?
Cause if you’re big star bound let me warn ya
It’s a long, hard ride”
Genuine country music icon David Allen Coe, from his song about another real icon, Hank Williams.
I see what you did there. LOL
>> If Beyonce can be a “country” singer
Which country? Haiti? Ghana? Zimbabwe? Nigeria?
“My Mama was drunk the day I got out of prison...”
Back in the 70’s this would ADD to his allure! Back in the days of “outlaw country”.
He was charged with three counts of reckless endangerment, danger to the public, and disorderly conduct.
can some one clarify. Is everything a felony now days. or just poor editing?
Second incidence like this. He busted up bottles in a drunken spree at Kid Rock’s bar. He was hated by the left after using dreaded “racial slurs” two years back. After his music was pulled from some venues it became big selling.
The old meme was that alcoholism is a self diagnosed disease but for some the votes are already In.
“Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be asses.”
In I Wrote the Book, he sings;
But there’s one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
The one that says don’t cuss and don’t fight
Or let the bottle turn you into a different man
But damn if I don’t do it every Friday night.
He’s so talented. Hope he turns his life around.
Throwing a chair off a roof deck..lol?
He’ll be fine.
He’s a legend in his own mind.
Ridiculous
Overkill by Nashville Soros DA
due to his past remarks the woke hate
He should get rowdy in the surrounding counties if he must
I see rehab coming
He needs it
He’s a redneck cheesedi#k babydaddy.
the other way around
I’m really surprised that he wasn’t charged with attempted murder of a Police officer, according to the story the chair landed just a few feet from them. Pointing a car in their direction usually brings this charge.
Not in Morgan’s version.😜
his dog just died, the truck won't start, and his home fell off the cinder blocks.
He's got a touch row to hoe. &^("
And his Mom got refused probation.
However, despite the Left attempting to derail, cancel, and destroy his career, he continues to release albums that sit at number one on the charts for months at a time. By modern standards, he writes some good songs that get a lot of airplay.
I guess he likes his booze and he likes to get a little rowdy now and again, but so did, in an earlier generation, the likes of Hank Williams Jr., Waylon Jennings, George Jones, Johnny Cash, and Willie Nelson, etc.
BTW, Morgan has his own bar opening up in Nashville later this summer. I can only imagine what that party will be like.
Some places have an Ax throwing venue.
His will have a chair throwing one..................
I read he was angry that his baby mama (was never his wife) eloped with some other dude.
