Shocking Video Shows Alan Ritchson Allegedly Assaulting Neighbor in Street Brawl
A disturbing video has surfaced online, purportedly showing actor Alan Ritchson, best known for his role in the Amazon Prime series 'Reacher,' engaged in a violent altercation with his neighbor, Ronnie Taylor. The incident, which occurred on Sunday, March 22, 2026, allegedly took place in front of two children on motorbikes, believed to be Ritchson's sons, sparking widespread concern and police involvement.
Details of the Alleged Attack
According to reports from TMZ, which obtained the video, the confrontation began on Saturday when Ritchson, 43, was riding his green Kawasaki motorcycle through their neighborhood at high speed, revving the engine and causing a disturbance. Taylor claims he gestured rudely at Ritchson, who responded in kind. The situation escalated the following day around noon when Ritchson returned to the area, this time accompanied by the two children on their own bikes, and was allegedly speeding again.
Taylor stated that he asked Ritchson to stop, leading to a heated exchange. In the video, Ritchson is seen throwing multiple punches at Taylor, who falls to the ground, and then kicking him. Taylor alleges he was struck at least four times, including in the back of the head, resulting in bruises and swelling, though he did not seek hospital treatment. After the assault, Ritchson and the children quickly rode away on their bikes.
