The charges against Chris Young have been dropped. The singer-songwriter shared a photo of the bruises from the aftermath of his run-in with Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) officers.
Chris was arrested last week and charged with disorderly conduct, assaulting an officer, and resisting arrest. Just a couple of days later a security video showed a story different from what the TABC officer was claiming. As a result, the charges against Chris were dropped.
Apparently, Chris has been seeing people online criticizing him over the false allegations. He finally decided to address the matter by posting a TikTok with another angle of the altercation, revealing he never touched the officer. He captioned the video, “For all the trolls saying “don’t touch a cop” … I didn’t touch him.”
Chris also posted a photo on Instagram showing the bruises on his back and arm from falling into a chair after the officer shoved him. If the injury on his back had been over a little farther and on his spine, things could have been worse for Chris.
Do you think the TABC officer should face repercussions for saying Chris touched him?
