Chris Young confidently responded to his critics after having all charges dropped in relation to his arrest last Monday.
The artist used social media to share a surveillance video and deliver a message to anyone who accused him of being at fault for touching a law enforcement officer.
On Friday, the Nashville District Attorney, Glenn Funk, declared that he had completed his examination of the evidence, leading to the dismissal of charges. The Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission had previously acknowledged their involvement in urging Young to keep his distance after he attempted to interfere in their license check.
A video, which was obtained by Taste of Country, depicts Young displaying minimal aggression while attempting to prevent an agent from taking action. From one perspective, it is uncertain whether Young made any physical contact with the man.
The singer of "Young Love & Saturday Nights" claims that he did not make physical contact with anyone. He recently posted a video on TikTok where he addresses the incident for the very first time.
"I did not physically make contact with the police officer," he states in response to the trolls who are advising against touching a cop.
After having all charges against him dismissed, Young is no longer facing any legal consequences for the incident. Now, he can focus on promoting his highly anticipated album, Young Love & Saturday Night, which is scheduled to be released on March 22.
