Country Singer Morgan Wallen Arrested For Reckless Endangerment In Nashville

Morgan Wallen performs "Man Made a Bar" at the 57th Annual CMA Awards in Nashville, Tenn., on Nov. 8, 2023.

Morgan Wallen was arrested Sunday night on reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct charges after he allegedly threw a chair from the rooftop of a Nashville bar. Wallen's attorney confirmed the arrest in a statement provided to Variety by the singer's team. According to local Nashville news outlet WKRN, Wallen was booked into Metro Jail early on Monday morning and released a few hours later.

Arrest documents obtained by WKRN detailed the incident, stating that two Metropolitan Nashville Police Department officers were standing in front of Chief's Bar on Broadway when a chair was thrown from the six-story building, landing approximately 3 feet away from them. Chief's staff members identified Wallen as the individual responsible for throwing the chair, a claim allegedly supported by security video footage.
