NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Morgan Wallen pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor reckless endangerment charges on Thursday.
He has to serve seven days of jail time at a DUI rehabilitation center and two years probation.
The 31-year-old singer and Knoxville native was arrested on felony charges in April after he threw a chair off the rooftop of a six-story bar in downtown Nashville. According to NBC affiliate WSMV, it was the bar's opening weekend.
An arrest affidavit said the chair landed about 3 feet from a pair of police officers. The officers began investigating, talking to witnesses and reviewing security footage. Witnesses told officers that they watched Wallen pick up a chair, throw it over the roof and laugh about it.
He appeared in a Davidson County courtroom on Dec. 12. Originally, he was charged with three counts of felony reckless endangerment and a count of disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor. He posted a bond of $15,250 and was released from jail after the incident, according to WSMV.
He also released a statement around 10 days after he threw the chair. That statement is available below.
"I didn't feel right publicly checking in until I made amends with some folks. I’ve touched base with Nashville law enforcement, my family, and the good people at Chief’s. I'm not proud of my behavior, and I accept responsibility.
I have the utmost respect for the officers working every day to keep us all safe. Regarding my tour, there will be no change. -MW"
