A man was taken into custody by Nashville police after he allegedly threatened to blow up Morgan Wallen’s pub in the city center.
The six-story venue was completely evacuated as a result of the tragedy, which created significant disruptions throughout the city.
Metro Nashville Police Department officers were called to This Bar & Tennessee Kitchen earlier this week after Reginald Smith, the suspect, entered the establishment and said he had a bomb in his backpack.

Smith was charged with creating a false report and causing panic after being arrested without incident. While police conducted their investigation, he stayed in custody. Authorities have not disclosed a potential reason.
For many country music lovers and Wallen, whose pub has grown to be a well-known addition to Nashville’s downtown entertainment district, the danger was personal. This six-story Bar & Tennessee Kitchen opened in 2024 and offers a variety of bars, rooftop views, live music on a regular basis, and a menu that draws inspiration from “Southern comfort food.”
The room is filled with mementos from the Whiskey Glasses singer’s career.
