NextImg:Morgan Wallen arrested on felony charges after allegedly throwing chair off bar roof

Country music star Morgan Wallen was charged with three felony counts early Monday in connection to an incident at Eric Church’s new honky tonk bar in Nashville, Tenn.

Some Nashville police officers had been standing in front of Chief’s Bar on Broadway Sunday night when a chair flew off the roof and hit the ground in front of them, according to local News Channel 5.

Staff members identified the “Wasted on You” crooner, 30, as the person responsible for tossing the chair and noted that he allegedly laughed afterward.

“At 10:53p Sunday evening Morgan Wallen was arrested in downtown Nashville for reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct,” his attorney said in a statement. “He is cooperating fully with authorities.”

Court records show Wallen must appear in criminal court on May 3. He was already expected to be in Nashville on that date as he has tour performances at Nissan Stadium on May 2 and May 3.

The “One Thing at a Time” performer has found himself embroiled in controversy numerous times in recent years. Wallen issued an apology in May 2020 after he was arrested on disorderly conduct and public intoxication charges in Nashville.

He had previously been charged with DUI in 2016, but the case was ultimately dismissed.

Wallen then apologized in 2021 after leaked footage showed him saying the N-word.

“I’m embarrassed and sorry. I used an unacceptable and inappropriate racial slur that I wish I could take back,” Wallen said in a statement at the time.

“There are no excuses to use this type of language, ever. I want to sincerely apologize for using the word. I promise to do better.”
