Country music singer Chris Young was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct, assaulting an officer, and resisting arrest following an incident at a Nashville bar on Monday night. However, surveillance video from the night contradicts the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission agent's claims, showing an officer shoving Young prior to the arrest. Young's attorney released a statement calling for the charges to be dropped and an apology for the harm caused to his client. The new video evidence led to prosecutors dropping all charges against Chris Young, as announced by District Attorney Glenn Funk.
In a statement released Friday, Nashville District Attorney Glenn Funk said charges against Young were dismissed “after a review of all the evidence.” https://t.co/6uQYq4svWY
