An initial hearing for country music star Morgan Wallen has been postponed until August in a case where he is accused of throwing a chair from the rooftop of a six-story bar, nearly hitting two police officers. Wallen's attorney stated that the case is complex and assured that Wallen would be present at the rescheduled hearing on August 15.
Wallen faces three felony counts of reckless endangerment and one misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct. According to an arrest affidavit, witnesses reported seeing Wallen pick up a chair, throw it off the roof of Chief’s bar on April 7, and laugh about it. The chair landed close to the officers, as confirmed by security footage and witness statements.
