Alan Ritchson is at the center of a shocking neighborhood dispute that has quickly spiraled into a police matter. 

The “Reacher” star is being accused of turning a heated exchange over motorcycle noise into a physical confrontation, with video of the incident now circulating online. 

As claims of punches, kicks, and injuries emerge, the situation has drawn growing attention, especially with witnesses nearby and law enforcement now actively looking into what happened.

Alan Ritchson Dispute With Neighbour Allegedly Started Over Motorcycle Noise

A TMZ report has revealed that Alan Ritchson was involved in a heated confrontation with a neighbor identified as Ronnie Taylor in a Nashville suburb.

According to the neighbor, the issue began a day earlier when the actor was riding his green Kawasaki motorcycle through the area in a way that he claims was disruptive. 

Taylor alleged that the bike was being driven at high speed, with loud revving that disturbed the otherwise quiet surroundings.

The situation quickly became heated, with both men allegedly exchanging gestures during that first encounter. While that moment did not turn physical, it appears to have set the stage for what happened next.

Taylor claims the following day brought a repeat of the same behavior, this time with two children present on motorbikes nearby. 

Frustrated, he confronted the actor directly, saying, “Can you f**king stop this please,” a moment he says immediately escalated tensions.

After that confrontation, Taylor alleges that Alan Ritchson became physical. He claims the actor struck him in the face and kicked him during the altercation. 

According to his account, the situation intensified after Ritchson fell from his motorcycle, got back up, and continued engaging.

Taylor further alleged that he was hit in the back of the head during the scuffle and was struck multiple times after ending up on the ground. 

He stated that he was hit “at least 4 times,” leaving him with visible injuries, including bruising and swelling.

The neighbor maintains that several people in the area witnessed parts of the confrontation. Despite the claims of injury, he said he did not go to the hospital afterward.

Authorities have confirmed that an investigation involving the duo is currently underway, though no arrests have been made so far.

Alan Ritchson’s Career Continues Amid Off-Screen Controversy
