A statement from the singers' agency stated that he was attacked ahead of his show in Salt Lake City, which was part of the ‘High, Lonesome and Then Some 2025 Tour.’ Meanwhile, records show that Snider was booked into the Salt Lake County Metro Jail. He faces suspicion of criminal trespass, threat of violence and disorderly conduct.

"Todd will be unable to perform for an undetermined amount of time," the statement from Aimless Inc. read. “We deeply apologize for the cancellation and any inconvenience it causes.”

Snider was slated to perform in Salt Lake City on November 1, Saturday, when the attack reportedly took place. His current condition is not known.

KUTV 2 reported, citing Snider's arrest affidavit, that Murray was admitted to the Holy Cross hospital from where he was discharged on Friday. However, Snider reportedly believed that he should not have been discharged, which led to an altercation with the hospital staff, where Snider started yelling at them.

As he was leaving after the heated altercation, a medical professional at the hospital reportedly told the singer to leave the property and not return. Snider left then, but returned shortly after and threatened to assault a staff.
