Country music star Morgan Wallen, facing four charges from an incident in April where he allegedly threw a chair off the rooftop of a Broadway bar, plans to waive his preliminary hearing, allowing the case to proceed to a grand jury.
Nashville police arrested Wallen on April 7 after the chair was thrown from the roof of Chief’s, Eric Church’s bar located in the 200 block of Broadway. The chair landed approximately three feet from two Metro officers standing in front of the bar around 10:53 p.m.
According to the arrest report, video surveillance captured Wallen throwing the chair off the roof. The footage reportedly shows him lunging and hurling the object.
Wallen was charged with three counts of reckless endangerment—two for the officers near the landing site and one for endangering the public—along with a charge of disorderly conduct.
