Chris Young thanks fans after assault charges dismissed: 'It's not something I wish I ever had to go through'

Chris Young shared an official message with fans on Thursday (February 1) after Nashville District Attorney Glenn Funk previously dismissed all charges against the singer following Young's alleged altercation at Nashville's Dawg House bar with Alcoholic Beverage Commission agents of Tennessee. The incident subsequently led to an arrest on three misdemeanor charges.

All charges against the singer were dismissed on Monday after security footage of the incident showed Young making contact with one of the agents, who then pushed Young to the floor of the bar (Young later was released photos on Instagram that showed bruises the singer allegedly had from being pushed to the ground).

In a video shared by Young via Instagram, he spoke directly to his fans and supporters, saying: “Hey guys, I just wanted to say something. You know, I'm still processing a lot about the false accusations and everything that happened last week. But I wanted to say first and foremost, thank you to everyone who had my back. It meant the world to me and I had so many friends and fans reach out and say “We got you, we don't think you did any of that.” So it's really nice to see the charges dropped. It's not something I wish anyone to ever go through. But, like I said, the bright spot was seeing all the love and support.”
