NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The Nashville District Attorney has dropped charges against singer Chris Young, according to a memo sent from his office late Friday.
Young was charged this week with assaulting an officer, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct after an incident with an alcohol agent at a bar in Midtown.

"After a review of all the evidence in this case, the Office of the District Attorney has determined that these charges will be dismissed," DA Glenn Funk said in a statement.
Earlier this week, security video surfaced, raising questions about the charges and what really happened.
Originally, Young's attorney Bill Ramsey called for an apology.
But on Friday, he told NewsChannel 5 that they are gratified with the DA’s decision clearing Young of any wrongdoing. They have no plans to sue the Tennessee Alcohol and Beverage Commission and just want to put the incident behind them.
Music lessons for just 50 cents! A Nashville music school has been providing that to area students for over 40 years including for the city's current mayor. As a child, I always wanted to take piano lessons. I was able to for about 6 months but had to stop due to family finances. I would have loved to have had access to a program like this at the W. O. Smith Music School.
