Wilson was arrested in August at a Connecticut airport.

(Windsor Locks, CT) -- A judge in Connecticut is dropping breach of peace charges against Redneck Woman Gretchen Wilson.

The country icon was arrested last month after an on-flight incident aboard an American Airlines plane.

Wilson was taken into custody at Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks for "causing a disturbance."

She was back in court last week to settle the case, and a judge agreed to drop the charges as long as she made a $500 charitable donation.
