Country Music Star Arrested In Tennessee: DETAILS
It's a troubling situation.
Country music star Gavin Adcock is in trouble with the law.
Adcock is one of the fastest rising stars in country music. The "A Cigarette" singer has a bit of an outlaw vibe to his music.
He's also a former Georgia Southern college football player. The man can do it all, but unfortunately for the talented singer, he found himself in handcuffs Wednesday night.

It's interesting to note that in Tennessee it's not illegal for a passenger in a vehicle to have an open container of alcohol.
The open container law only applies to the driver.
