Snider cancelled his show in Salt Lake City after his team announced that he was violently assaulted outside of his hotel. <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"MPIISYQKARHQFIWA3MAHQLBG7I\">\u201cWe are heartbroken to announce the cancellation of the High, Lonesome and Then Some 2025 Tour dates,\u201d the statement read. \u201cAhead of Todd Snider\u2019s show in Salt Lake City, Todd sustained severe injuries as the victim of a violent assault outside of his hotel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"TARWYDFYPBHM5NI6QO736ZM44Q\">\u201cTodd will be unable to perform for an undetermined amount of time,\u201d the statement continued. \u201cWe deeply apologize for the cancellation and any inconvenience it causes. We appreciate your understanding as Todd receives needed medical treatment. We hope to have more information on new dates soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"2K7WNYJ65VDPZC7OXY3IYALEKA\">That was not the end of the story, though, obviously. Following that announcement, Snider, 59, was taken into custody, and in the bodycam footage a representative from the hospital explains that he had already been treated at one of their sister hospitals. <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"NRN5OD322JFIJJNPEEJ5GN72FU\">\u201cHe was assaulted like last night,\u201d the person tells police. \u201cHe was just discharged from one of our sister hospitals about 12:30. He came today and I just straight up asked him, \u2018What is it that you want us to do for you that they haven\u2019t already done for you?\u2019 And he said his whole body hurts, and then he said he just wanted a place to sleep overnight. And I said that we are not a place you can sleep overnight. If you need a place to sleep overnight, you\u2019re going to have to find some place else. That is when everything escalated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"AUNZMK4JX5GBDIA45DCVNLR7KA\">The person from the hospital said that Snider was \u201cbeing loud and obnoxious.\u201d A security guard said that Snider said he wanted to \u201ckick my ass.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"47ILURK4OZAXFIQSF42C4R7OUA\">Video showed police reading an emotional Snider his rights.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"RLBLWOUMLRAWXNR3FRP7F7RUXQ\">\u201cI just want to be treated,\u201d he said. \u201cI need to be in the hospital not in the jail. Please! I checked out and I tried to check back in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"LKPPWPHTKNB77BKEHVHYYHNTQQ\">Police then told Snider that the hospital said he was looking for a bed, and he can\u2019t stay there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"AP7S7MSSTZBSVPT6Q2VZY44JA4\">\u201cI\u2019m sick,\u201d he pleaded. \u201cWhere can I stay?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"NWE7BK54JNC6ZAADHJJODNZXL4\">That is when police asked him if he was homeless.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"DVQQ4XVA2NGMJNHDR7J7XTVA6Q\">\u201cI\u2019m not homeless,\u201d Snider said. \u201cI live in Nashville. I have a band. I\u2019m famous. <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"SPBRZVYKXJGVHMD2WVFFNJMMVI\">\u201cI\u2019m not a bad person,\u201d he added. \u201cI promise. I promise you can check my record. I just need help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"BRAMDX4MOVDGHFZTHQWPXCK6V4\">Police asked Snider where his pain was.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"TS75OFQUQ5FZZFMY44YD7KZNLA\">\u201cIt\u2019s in my neck and my back, my arms and my legs and my stomach,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s everywhere.
