Country star Sam Hunt has apologized to fans following his DUI arrest on Thursday morning.

The singer was picked up by police officials in Nashville, Tennessee after they spotted him driving the wrong way on the city’s Ellington Parkway. They found two open containers of alcohol in his vehicle after pulling Hunt over.

“Wednesday night I decided to drive myself home after drinking at a friend’s show in downtown Nashville,” Hunt tweeted on Friday. “It was a poor and selfish decision and I apologize to everyone who was unknowingly put at risk and let down by it. It won’t happen again.”

According to Davidson County’s Criminal Court Clerk records, Hunt was charged with a misdemeanor for an open container as well as DUI charges.

The Body Like a Back Road singer is due to appear in court on 17 January.
