“Reacher” star Alan Ritchson’s neighbor detailed how the actor allegedly “kicked the crap” out of him in his front yard over the weekend.
On Monday, Ronnie Taylor told TMZ that he allegedly confronted Ritchson after the latter was repeatedly driving his motorcycle too fast down their street in Tennessee.
Taylor claimed that he didn’t know Ritchson was famous when he told the Prime Video star on Saturday to slow down to avoid anyone from getting hurt.
“Then, on Sunday, when I was cleaning by bike outside my house, he rode past once, twice, and on the second time I walked out in front of him, and I said, ‘You got to stop, someone’s going to get hurt,’” Taylor recalled.
“Then it escalated quite quickly from there. I did push him because he was coming towards me on his bike,” Taylor admitted.
Taylor alleged that Ritchson approached him for a second time on his bike and he “pushed him again,” adding, “I think the second time he got off his bike, and he kicked the crap out of me.”
“He hit me in the back of my head [and] I went to the ground and covered myself,” Taylor claimed, explaining he doesn’t wish the “Fast X” star any “ill-will.”
Taylor also previously admitted to having given Ritchson, 43, the middle finger, which was returned back.
The incident occurred in front of two kids — who appeared to be the actor’s sons, whom he shares with his wife, Catherine Ritchson.
Taylor showed off his alleged marks, revealing a bruise and scratches on his forehead, nose and chin.
A rep for Ritchson wasn’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.
On Sunday, the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” star was allegedly seen in a video obtained by TMZ beating a man in broad daylight.
Footage showed Taylor kneeling on the floor as Ritchson appeared to hit him “at least four times.”
Taylor claimed that he reported his neighbor to the police, and law enforcement sources told the outlet that an investigation was ongoing.
No arrests have been made.
Insiders close to Ritchson told the outlet that he didn’t start the altercation, alleging that he was shoved off his bike by a “really aggressive” neighbor before the brawl started.
The “Hunger Games: Catching Fire” star allegedly has a minor finger injury and additional cuts and bruises.
Ritchson has yet to address the incident, and last shared a video of himself fighting jet lag by singing over the weekend.
He often shares quirky videos and photos of himself working hard on set and with his family.
