On Sunday in Tennessee, Alan Ritchson reportedly had a physical altercation with his neighbor, Ronnie Taylor, and was wearing a bodycam during the incident.
A video circulating on TikTok and published by TMZ shows more of what led up to the fight before it became violent.
And now it has become more obvious who instigated the takedown.
In a video clip, Taylor approached Jack Reacher actor Alan Ritchson and his two children while they were riding motorcycles in their neighborhood.
The neighbor, visibly upset, walked off his property, across the sidewalk, and into the street, directly into the path of the 43-year-old actor who was riding a green Kawasaki motorcycle.
Taylor reportedly stood directly in front of the motorcycle, positioning their legs wide apart to prevent the rider from driving away.
That appeared to anger Ritchson who laid down his motorcycle and approached Taylor.
Screaming started when Taylor said the driver was speeding recklessly, and she worried about the safety of the neighborhood children, as shown in the bodycam footage.
The video footage shows the actor then angrily questioned his neighbor, asking if he’d been drinking and accusing him of being unreasonable.
The actor later confessed to Taylor that he regretted not having run his neighbor over with his motorcycle when the neighbor walked out into the street.
I watched as he hopped on his bike, carefully putting his helmet back on. Then he started revving the engine repeatedly – it was clear Taylor was getting seriously annoyed by it, and honestly, a little part of me was too! It just seemed like he was deliberately trying to get under her skin.
That is when the argument gets physical as seen in the clip.
Taylor can be seen pushing the actor and his motorcycle to the street twice.
Ritchson immediately starts fighting back, punching Taylor in the face repeatedly. After the punches land, he tells Taylor to stay down.
TMZ has obtained an image of Taylor with bruises and cuts to his face after the fight.
The police are investigating the fight.
According to a spokesperson for the Brentwood, Tennessee Police Department, the investigation is ongoing and no one has been arrested yet. A full police report will be released once the investigation is complete.
The Daily Mail has contacted Ritchson’s spokesperson for a statement, but has not received a response yet.
Alan Ritchson and his wife, Catherine, who he married in 2006 after meeting in a college dance class, have three sons together.
Ritchson has also appeared in several other TV shows, including Smallville, Blue Mountain State, Blood Drive, and Titans.
He’s known for his movie roles, including Raphael in the 2014 and 2016 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles films. He also appeared in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013), Lazer Team (2015), and Fast X (2023).
In 2024, Jack Ritchson shared that he had tried to take his own life in 2019, but a thought of his sons gave him the strength to keep going.
Ritchson told The Hollywood Reporter he struggled with severe depression and had to complete editing his first film as a director, Dark Web: Cicada 3301, while confined to bed.
After the suicide attempt, he sought help from a doctor who diagnosed him with bipolar disorder.
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder shortly after, and honestly, it was a relief to finally understand what was happening and have a name for it.
A friend then suggested he try MDMA therapy with his wife Catherine.
It was a real breakthrough moment – a sudden realization that completely changed my perspective. Research shows MDMA can be a helpful treatment for PTSD, especially when used alongside talk therapy for veterans, and it has potential in other therapeutic settings too.
The therapy session helped him think deeply about his life and realize that his purpose is to improve the world and help people.
A sudden realization inspired Ritchson to pursue more rewarding work, which eventually led to his role in the TV show Reacher.
In his interview, Ritchson also revealed he experienced sexual assault while working as a model.
