  • Country music star Morgan Wallen has been sentenced to two years' probation after throwing a chair from the roof of a Tennessee bar. The I Had Some Help singer must also spend seven days at an education centre for driving under the influence after he pleaded guilty to two counts of reckless endangerment.

Country singer Jimmie Allen was sentenced to 24 months of probation after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge of throwing a chair off the roof of a Nashville bar in May 2023. The incident occurred at the popular bar Tin Roof, where Allen, in a moment of frustration, tossed a chair off the sixth floor, narrowly missing a group of people below. Although no one was injured, the act was captured on video, leading to his arrest. Allen's legal team argued that the incident was out of character, attributing it to personal and professional stress. As part of his plea deal, Allen must also pay restitution, perform community service, and undergo an alcohol and drug assessment. This legal trouble comes amidst other personal challenges for Allen, including a lawsuit from his former manager alleging sexual assault, which he denies.
