Country singer Morgan Wallen issued an apology on Twitter after he was arrested on Saturday and charged with public intoxication and disorderly conduct. 

The 27-year-old singer, known for hits like "Whiskey Glasses" and "Chasin' You," was arrested after being kicked out of Kid Rock’s bar in downtown Nashville, Tenn. After the incident, Wallen took to Twitter to apologize for his behavior and to seemingly show that things are all good between him and Kid Rock. 

"Hey y’all just wanted to clear the air. I went out downtown last night with a few old friends," Wallen wrote Sunday. "After a couple bar stops, we were horse-playing with each other. We didn't mean any harm, and we want to say sorry to any bar staff or anyone that was affected."

The following day, he shared a picture of himself standing next to Kid Rock, captioning the photo: "Fresh Out." The snap is seemingly an effort to show that there’s no hard feelings between him and the "Cowboy" musician after the altercation.

According to The Tennessean, after Wallen was kicked out of the bar, he began getting into verbal fights with passersby on the streets, which officers watched. After reportedly refusing to walk away with his friends when given the opportunity by police, they determined Wallen was "a danger to himself and the public" and took him into custody.
