Chris Young recently addressed his fans for the first time since his arrest and subsequent charges being dropped. He mentioned that he is still trying to make sense of the events that transpired, which involved his arrest on assault allegations.

The singer of "Young Love & Saturday Nights" went on social media to express gratitude towards friends and fans who supported him after he was in jail on the night of Jan. 22.

Connected: Chris Young has been acquitted of all charges following his arrest at a bar in Nashville.

In the video, Young expressed how much it meant to him to have friends and fans support him and reassure him that they do not believe he committed any wrongdoing.

"It's a relief to see the charges being dropped. Going through something like that is not something I would want anyone to experience. However, it was heartwarming to see the love and support from others."
