Welcome to Arrest Stories,
A singer-songwriter's violent past comes back to haunt him at a hospital, where he's now accused of making threats.
Todd Snider, fifty-nine, was the victim of a violent assault outside his hotel, which left him severely injured.
Here's what may have happened.
On Sunday, Todd Snider was hospitalized after a violent attack, but his stay was cut short when he was discharged. However, Snider didn't believe he should have been released and began yelling and cursing at the hospital staff. A medical professional from the hospital asked Snider to leave the property and not return, but he refused. The situation escalated when Snider threatened to kick a staff member's *** after being asked to leave. Hospital staff reported that Snider yelled and cursed at them multiple times, causing a disturbance.
According to police reports, Snider's behavior became increasingly aggressive, and he was eventually arrested on suspicion of disorderly conduct, trespassing, and making a violent threat. The exact location and details surrounding this incident remain unclear. When asked about the incident, officials stated that Snider was going to 'kick your (expletive)'.
A timeline of events reveals that Snider's tour was scheduled to stop in South Salt Lake on June 25th, but it was canceled due to unknown reasons. In August, Snider was set to play in Phoenix on Monday, West Hollywood on Tuesday, and San Francisco on Wednesday. However, on August 11th, Snider was arrested at a hospital after a violent outburst.
Snider's recent album, High, Lonesome, and Then Some, was released on October 17th, but the incident at the hospital has raised concerns about the singer's behavior.
