In the video, Young expresses how much it meant to him to have friends and fans support him and say they believe in his innocence.
"It's a relief to see the charges being dropped. No one should have to experience something like this. However, the positive aspect was the overwhelming love and support that was shown."
The event occurred at the Dawg House located in the downtown area of Nashville.
Footage from a security camera captures Young appearing composed before he tries to grab the attention of a Tennessee Alcohol Beverage Commission agent by reaching out his arm. The agent then shoves Young, causing him to trip backwards into the bar and collapse.
In a recent video, Young mentioned that he is still trying to understand and cope with the false accusations and events of the past week. He also shared that the support from his fans motivated him to release a new song from his upcoming album ahead of schedule.
The album "Double Down" will be released on Friday, February 2nd, at midnight.
"Turn up the volume and have a good time. I am grateful for you, I care about you, and I want to say thank you," Young expresses.
