Alan Ritchson will walk away from last week’s neighborly altercation virtually scot-free. The Reacher star got a few minor wounds when his neighbor stopped him while on his motorcycle. That said, he will not endure any legal ramifications for his part in the incident.
Ronnie Taylor dropped the charges against the actor without getting any financial compensation for his troubles. He was none too pleased with Alan riding his bike down in the neighborhood, believing he was being dangerous. He confronted him about that over the weekend, paying a physical price for his actions.

Legally speaking, Alan is in the clear. TMZ reports that Ronnie dropped the charges because he had no interest in going to court. “I was only interested in the safety of my neighborhood,” said Ronnie. He previously said that Alan and his kids were riding their bikes at unsafe speeds.
While Ronnie chose not to pursue his case any further, he appeared to express disappointment with how the matter was resolved. He says no money was exchanged between him and Alan “not a f*cking penny.”
Earlier this week, Alan had been cleared by the police of any wrongdoing in the incident. Ronnie says that police deemed Alan’s actions to be in self-defense. That’s something witnesses also alleged. Ronnie admitted to pushing the TV star but didn’t seem to think it warranted such retaliation. Alan laid a beatdown on Ronnie, who appeared to be egging him on.
The self-defense ruling, according to Ronnie, was told to him by cops after he dropped the charges. Ronnie claims that he didn’t even get an attorney following the incident. The altercation between Alan and Ronnie occurred in a Nashville suburb, and it was all captured on video.
