In the video, Young expressed how much it meant to him to have the support of his friends and fans who reached out to him to tell him they believe in him and do not think he is guilty of what he was accused of.
"It's a relief to see the charges dropped. No one should have to experience something like that. The positive aspect was the overwhelming love and support that was shown."
The event occurred at the Dawg House located in the heart of Nashville's downtown area.
In the security camera footage, Young appears composed as he tries to grab the attention of a Tennessee Alcohol Beverage Commission agent by gesturing with his arm. The agent responds by pushing Young, causing him to trip backwards into the bar and fall down.
