Chris Young has shared a picture of his injuries following a confrontation with officers from the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) prior to his recent arrest. The injuries he sustained were just as severe as they appeared.
The singer displayed his bruises to his fans on Tuesday (Jan. 30). These bruises were caused when an officer forcefully pushed him, causing him to lose his balance and fall over the edge of a bar. The injuries he sustained include two noticeable bruises – one on the inner part of his arm and another on his lower back, both being large and dark in color.
In the photo shared by Young, he expresses that the proximity of something is uncomfortably close to his spine. He accompanies his post with a clip from "Don't Stand So Close to Me," a popular song by the British rock group The Police, to emphasize his point.
After reading Young's post, numerous fans expressed sympathy towards his experience in the comments section. However, there were also people who defended the actions taken by the officers.
A commenter expresses concern about the idea of suing someone to prevent similar incidents from happening to others and questions the morality of such actions.
One person expresses their opinion by saying that they should not attempt to hinder someone's employment. They also mention that they cannot sympathize with the person. Despite this, they still enjoy the person's music.
Earlier this month, the actor known for his role in "Young Love & Saturday Nights" was taken into custody after causing a disturbance, physically resisting arrest, and attacking a law enforcement officer at a bar called the Dawg House in Nashville.
However, the video evidence of the event, captured by security cameras and other customers in the bar, presents a contrasting account. It shows that Young was respectful and compliant when being arrested by the officers. It appears that he only lightly touched one of the officers before the officer forcefully pushed him backwards, causing him to fall over a bar.
The charges against the singer were dismissed, and Young then confidently responded to the individuals who criticized his decision to make contact with the officer.
After having all charges dropped against him, Young is now free from any legal consequences related to the incident. He will probably resume his promotional activities for his upcoming album, titled Young Love & Saturday Nights, set to be released on March 22.
