Wallen's bond was set at $15,250 (£12,000) and he was filmed being shielded by umbrellas as he was released from Davidson County jail. Wallen's attorney Worrick Robinson shared a statement about the arrest with NewsChannel5 . He said: "At 10:53pm Sunday evening Morgan Wallen was arrested in downtown Nashville for reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct. He is cooperating fully with authorities." The singer's next court date is May 3. Wallen is already expected to be in Nashville on that date as he will be performing at Nissan Stadium on May 2 and 3. The

In May 2020, he was detained over disorderly conduct at Kid Rock's Honky Tonk bar in Nashville. He was also charged with DUI in 2016 but the case was dismissed. Wallen was forced to speak out in defence of
Taylor Swift last week after she was booed by his fans. Concert goers gave an unexpected reaction to a comment he made about the Shake It Off hitmaker during his show at Lucas
Oil Stadium in Indianapolis on Friday night. "They told me right before I walked on stage that this is the single most-attended concert in the history of this building," he said. "And that we are the first people to do that two nights in a row. I’m going to say that until Taylor Swift comes to town in the fall." People then started booing his comment, but the singer was having none of it. "We ain’t got to boo, we ain’t got to boo," he warned fans. Follow the Mirror US News page on
