The dispute between Alan Ritchson and his neighbor in Tennessee is continuing, with TMZ now sharing the neighbor’s perspective. This comes after initial reports suggested Ritchson, known for his role in Reacher, might not have been the one who began the fight.
According to TMZ, a neighbor named Ronnie Taylor told Ritchson he was upset about the actor speeding on a motorcycle through their neighborhood.

Neighbor says he confronted Alan Ritchson over motorcycle riding
TMZ reports that Ronnie Taylor said he was washing his motorcycle in his driveway when actor Ritchson supposedly sped through the neighborhood, according to an appearance on TMZ Live.
Taylor explained that he went outside to speak with the rider because he was worried about their speed and didn’t want anyone to get injured. He felt the riding was reckless and wanted to ask them to slow down.
According to TMZ, Taylor said he didn’t realize Alan Ritchson was a well-known actor and just thought he was a neighbor speeding dangerously. He also claims he immediately confronted Ritchson the second time he supposedly drove down the street.

New update adds to conflicting accounts
This new version adds to the conflicting stories already surrounding the incident.
Previous reports suggested Jack Ritchson’s neighbor started the conflict, supposedly by pushing him off his bicycle, which then led to a fight. Now, TMZ has published the neighbor’s side of the story, explaining what he says happened.
The core of the story remains the video, reportedly showing Taylor being assaulted during the incident, according to TMZ. TMZ also states that the police investigation is ongoing and no one has been arrested yet.
Police investigation still ongoing
The situation now boils down to two different accounts. One side claims Alan Ritchson reacted after being provoked, while the other says the conflict started due to reckless driving in the neighborhood.
We’re still waiting for more details from the police, so it’s hard to know exactly what happened. However, new reports from TMZ show the neighbor is now explaining his side of the story and why he initially approached the actor from Reacher.
