Morgan Wallen capped a wild weekend by getting arrested on multiple felony charges.
The country singer’s rep confirmed the arrest in a statement to Deadline’s sister title Billboard. Police say he hurled a chair off the roof of Eric Church’s Chief’s Bar in Nashville on Sunday night. He has been released from jail.
Worrick Robinson, of Worrick Robinson Law, said: “At 10:53p Sunday evening Morgan Wallen was arrested in downtown Nashville for reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct. He is cooperating fully with authorities.”
WSMV reported that Wallen was taken into custody just after 12:30 a.m. He is charged with three counts of felony reckless endangerment and one count of disorderly conduct.
The incident took place after Wallen denounced his fans for booing Taylor Swift on Friday night. He told the crowd that they had set an attendance record for his two-night appearance at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. He then quipped that he would likely hold the title “until Taylor Swift comes to town.”
Wallen thanked fans for their loyalty, but said, “We ain’t got to boo, we ain’t got to boo.”
