Video Footage Appears to Contradict Officer’s Claim Country Singer Chris Young Allegedly Assaulted Him


The musician was arrested Monday (Jan. 22), and charged with three misdemeanors.

New surveillance videos have surfaced appearing to contradict a Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission agent’s claim that country singer Chris Young assaulted him before the musician was arrested in Nashville Monday night (Jan. 22). The first video shows Young — wearing a leather jacket, jeans and a black hat — waiting in line with others as the agents walk past them to exit the Dawg House bar. “What happened to my client Chris Young at a bar in Nashville on Monday night was wrong and he never should have been arrested and charged in the first place,” Bill Ramsey, the musician’s attorney, tells Billboard in a statement.
