Nick Carter Released From Jail! See The Backstreet Boy’s Bar Arrest Video And Prison Exit
Badstreet boy! Nick Carter was released from prison after being arrested for alleged misdemeanor battery in Key West on Jan. 14.
The 35-year-old singer left the Monroe County Detention Center on a $1,500 bail following his arrest during a bar fight at Hog’s Breath Saloon.
The former Backstreet Boys member left wearing a red tank top that displayed his tattoos and basketball shorts, but was seen in photos from prison wearing a jumpsuit.
While Carter has yet to issue a statement, reports said his arrest started because of a fight with a bouncer outside the bar.
"My name is Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys. I'm a f—king singer,” he said in video released from the incident. "I wanted to sing! That's all I wanted to do. I wanted to go on the microphone and sing."
