Alan Ritchson had a violent weekend.
On Sunday, TMZ shared shocking footage of the Reacher star attacking his neighbor in what appeared to be a street fight. As the clip starts, the neighbor, identified by the outlet as Ronnie Taylor, is on the ground bracing for a beating as Alan delivers several powerful blows. To make things even worse, the actor’s kids are standing by watching everything go down from their motorbikes the whole time…

When Alan lays off, he goes and picks up his helmet and his own green motorbike, which is tipped over on the road of their Brentwood, Tennessee neighborhood. Tensions are clearly still hot as words seem to be exchanged, but at that point, the fighting was over. Watch the clip (below):
But while things may look bad for Alan, there’s apparently a lot more to the story than what made it onto film.
On Monday morning, an insider alleged to TMZ it was not the Fast X actor who instigated the fight, but the neighbor. The source claimed witnesses saw Alan and his kids riding up and down the street on their motorbikes on Sunday when Ronnie allegedly ran out to confront them in a “really aggressive” manner. According to the source, Alan wiped out as a result and sustained some cuts and bruises. The source claimed Ronnie instigated Alan to strike him while the actor was still trying to recover from his crash. When he got to his feet, he tried to diffuse things by hopping back on his bike and riding off, but Ronnie allegedly shoved him back to the ground, resulting in Alan delivering the beating we saw in the video. After which, Alan and his kids took off.
Damn!
Ronnie told the outlet Alan had been riding his motorbike in the neighborhood at excessive speeds for two days and so he finally had enough on Sunday, leading to the attack. Sources close to Alan claimed Ronnie “initiated and instigated” everything.
The outlet was informed Alan has since cooperated with cops and no arrests have been made.
Whew! What a weekend! Reactions??
