We didn’t mean any harm, and we want to say sorry to any bar staff or anyone that was affected.”

Morgan Wallen issued an apology for Saturday night arrest
Wallen had a run-in with the law after being kicked out from Kid Rock‘s Honky Tonk in downtown Nashville. At around 11 P.M. on Saturday night, he was “placed under arrest due to being intoxicated in public, unable to take care of himself, and the reasonable likelihood the offense would continue,” WKRN News 2 reported.
It was said that the country crooner got the boot from the bar’s security guards after kicking glass items inside. He was given several chances to leave, but refused to do so and got into multiple verbal altercations with passerby. He was considered a danger to himself and to the public since officers noticed a strong odor of alcohol from him.
For the two offenses, Wallen got his bail set at $500. He reportedly made bail at 1:47 A.M. on Sunday morning. He is expected to go to court for the misdemeanor charges in July.
Wallen rose to fame back in 2014 through the singing competition show though he got eliminated during playoffs. Since then, he has released a series of No. 1 country singles, including a Florida Georgia Line collaboration titled “Up Down”. Most recently, he came out with a new song called “More Than My Hometown”.
