ATLANTA (AP) — Reality TV star Chase Chrisley is accused of slapping the manager of a popular sports bar in Atlanta after refusing to leave.

Chrisley became well-known through the reality TV show “Chrisley Knows Best,” which showcased his parents and their tight-knit family. On January 6, he reportedly was intoxicated at a Twin Peaks restaurant and ignored the manager’s request for him to leave, as detailed in an Atlanta police report.

Reportedly, he hit the manager two times on the face, even doing so while the manager was speaking to emergency services on the phone, as heard in the audio recording of the call that was made public.

Chrisley was arrested Thursday on suspicion of simple battery and later released on a $10,000 bond.

A public relations representative Chrisley lists on his Instagram account didn’t immediately respond to an inquiry Sunday about the incident.

An Atlanta police report said the manager told officers that the 28-year-old Chrisley was acting “very disrespectful and belligerent.”

He refused to leave several times and his behavior got worse — culminating in the slapping.

Chrisley left with his driver before officers arrived.

The restaurant shared security footage of the incident with police.

Chrisley’s parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, are both in prison on bank fraud and tax evasion charges.

A jury in 2022 found them guilty of conspiring to defraud community banks out of more than $30 million in fraudulent loans.

The older Chrisleys were also found guilty of tax evasion by hiding their earnings.
