Yeager must also get substance abuse and mental health evaluations, will be subject to random drug and alcohol testing while on probation, and can't have weapons or drugs and alcohol.

The confrontation continued when he followed them into a nearby Chick-fil-A parking lot where he began threatening the two victims and proceeded to take a gun out of his car, the documents said.
Yeager allegedly hit one of the victims in the back of the head with his gun before police responded.
Video showed Yeager getting pushed to the ground by police, and officials said Yeager became violent while being arrested and kicked an officer in the thigh.
The social media star's TikTok account has some 1.4 million followers, while his Instagram page has a little under 500,000 followers.
