Alan Ritchson is under investigation following an alleged altercation with a neighbour in Tennessee
Alan Ritchson, best known for his role in Reacher, is under investigation following an alleged altercation with a neighbour in Tennessee.
The incident, which reportedly took place on Sunday, was captured in a video that appears to show Ritchson striking a man multiple times while the individual was on the ground.
The alleged victim, identified as Ronnie Taylor, claimed he was punched several times and later shared images of visible facial injuries.
According to reports, the dispute stemmed from a prior encounter in which Ritchson was allegedly riding a motorcycle through the neighborhood at high speed and revving the engine loudly.
Taylor admitted to exchanging gestures with the actor during that earlier incident, which may have contributed to tensions.
The situation escalated the following day when the two men confronted each other again.
Taylor said he asked Ritchson to stop the disturbance, while sources close to the actor claim he did not initiate the physical confrontation and was allegedly pushed off his bike before responding.
Two children, believed to be Ritchson’s sons, were reportedly present nearby during the incident.
Law enforcement authorities confirmed that a formal investigation is underway, though no arrests have been made so far. Ritchson’s representatives have not publicly commented on the matter.
The case remains under review as officials work to determine the circumstances surrounding the altercation.
