Country music star Morgan Wallen found himself in trouble with the law after reportedly throwing a chair from a bar rooftop in Nashville on Sunday night, according to police.

Wallen, 30, now faces three reckless endangerment charges and one disorderly conduct charge following an incident at Chief's, country artist Eric Church's six-story restaurant bar in downtown Nashville. The Metro Nashville Police Department shared on social media that Wallen threw a chair from the top floor of Chief's, which landed on Broadway near two officers.

His lawyer, Worrick Robinson, confirmed the arrest and stated that Wallen is cooperating with authorities.

Wallen's bond has been set at $15,250, and he is scheduled to appear in court on May 3. This incident occurred as he began his One Night At A Time Tour at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Wallen is set to perform in Nashville from May 2 to May 4.

Following the recent events, his comrades in the country music industry were honored at the Country Music Television Awards in Austin, Texas. Despite being nominated for best male video of the year with his "Last Night" music video, Wallen was defeated by Jelly Roll whose video for "Need a Favor" claimed the award instead.
