Mark Morrison Released on Bond After Battery Charge in Palm Beach Altercation

The R&B singer is accused of shoving a restaurant manager during a dispute over a planned event, with his attorney citing a racially charged context.

Mark Morrison, known for his hit 'Return of the Mack,' was arrested on March 22 for allegedly shoving Nicola Lavacca, the general manager of Le Bar à Vin in Palm Beach, Florida.
The altercation reportedly stemmed from disagreements over an event Morrison had organized at the restaurant the previous evening.

Morrison's attorney, Rick King, claims the incident involved a racially charged context and expressed confidence that Morrison will be cleared of wrongdoing.
