Wallen pleads guilty in chair throwing incident

Wallen will spend seven days in a DUI education center and be under supervised probation for two years.

The country star was accused with throwing a chair off the roof at Chief's bar on April 7. The bar is owned by Eric Church. The chair landed about one yard from the officers, who spoke to witnesses. They told police that they observed Wallen picking up a chair, tossing it off the roof and laughing about it.

At the time, Wallen took "responsibility" for the incident and said he was "not proud" of his behavior. He was initially charged with three felony counts of reckless endangerment and one misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct.

Wallen has since apologized to the police officers. If he successfully completes probation, the charges could be dismissed and expunged from his record.

Wallen has had several other incidents in recent years. In 2020, he was arrested on public intoxication and disorderly conduct charges following being thrown out of Kid Rock's bar in downtown Nashville.

In January 2021, a video surfaced of Wallen using the N word outside of his Nashville apartment after he had been drinking. He was suspended by his label and lost radio airplay. Eventually, he resurfaced and is one of the biggest stars in country. Last month, he won Entertainer of the Year at the Country Music Association awards.
