Don Lemon has been released from custody after a federal court appearance Friday in Los Angeles.
Lemon was arrested and charged after covering a Minnesota protest that interrupted a church service on Jan. 18.
He was arrested Thursday night and released on his own recognizance Friday. He'll be able to travel throughout the country, and was not ordered to give up his passport.
Lemon's next court date will be Feb. 9 in Minneapolis.
“I have spent my entire career covering the news,” he said. “I will not stop now. There is no more important time than right now, this very moment, for a free and independent media that shines a light on the truth and holds those in power accountable."
