A few days ago, TMZ revealed a video of what seemed to be the ‘Reacher’ actor beating his neighbour in their Nashville suburban area as his sons watched on. After the video went viral, the actor was heavily criticised, and Ronnie issued a public statement about what happened.
“I don’t really wish the guy any malice or ill will, but we just don’t need people riding through neighborhoods like this. I just decided I’m going to take a stand because someone has to, or it’s going to end up way worse,” he shared. He provided more clarification, citing that he wanted to confront Ritchson about riding his motorcycle along with his sons up and down the streets of their area and making too much noise. However, one thing led to another and the altercation became physical.The police have issued a formal notice announcing that after investigation they will not be pursuing any legal case against either of the people involved.
