Country Star Morgan Wallen Arrested After Throwing Chair From Nashville Rooftop

Ugh, Nashville can’t seem to catch a break from Morgan Wallen drama. This time, it’s not about a cancelled album or a leaked song. According to the Metro Nashville Police Department, Wallen landed himself in hot water early Monday morning facing some serious charges.

Let’s unpack this mess. Apparently, Wallen was hanging out Sunday night on the rooftop of Chief’s, a swanky new six-story bar on Broadway owned by fellow country singer Eric Church. Things allegedly went sideways when witnesses say Wallen decided toYeet (yes, with a capital Y) a chair right off the dang rooftop! Thankfully, no one was injured, but the chair landed way too close for comfort – right next to two police officers patrolling the street below.

Needless to say, Wallen’s night went from rooftop hangout to jail cell real quick. He was booked and charged with three counts of felony reckless endangerment, on top of a misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge. After forking over a hefty $15,250 bond, Wallen’s scheduled to appear in court again on May 3rd.

This isn’t Wallen’s first brush with controversy. Back in 2021, a video surfaced of him using a racial slur, which led to a suspension from award shows and radio stations. Country music fans are a divided bunch – will this latest incident be a minor setback, or is it the final nail in his career coffin?

The jury’s still out on that one. But one thing’s for sure: Nashville’s abuzz with this story, and social media is blowing up with reactions. We’ll likely hear more about it in the coming days, with analysts dissecting the potential impact on Wallen’s career and fans debating whether to forgive or forget.
