AceShowbiz - Ian Ziering was spotted for the first time in public since his headline-making street brawl with a group of bikers. In his first sighting, the "Beverly Hills, 90210" alum appeared to be in good spirits as he stepped out for lunch on Tuesday afternoon, January 2.
In some pictures that made their rounds online, Ian could be seen looking relaxed while arriving at Bristol Farms in West Hollywood. The 59-year-old star opted for a casual look in a checkered shirt that he paired with denim pants. He seemingly showcased his mood with his baseball cap that had "Good Vibes" written on it.
The snaps came after he was viciously attacked by a biker gang on Hollywood Blvd in Los Angeles on New Year's Eve. A viral video featured Ian confronting one of the bikers as they were riding mini bikes, weaving in and out of traffic.
As Ian and the biker got into a physical altercation, the other bikers came to help their friend attack the actor. Ian tried to escape the group by running across the street, but they managed to catch him and threw more punches. Eventually, Ian was able to get back in his car and drive off.
Later on Monday, January 1, the actor detailed the attack in an Instagram post. "Yesterday, I experienced an alarming incident involving a group of individuals on mini bikes," he said. "While stuck in traffic, my car was approached aggressively by one of these riders leading to an unsettling confrontation."
"In an attempt to assess any damage I exited my car. This action, unfortunately, escalated into a physical altercation, which I navigated to protect myself," he added. Thankfully, Ian and his daughter are both completely unscathed. However, he noted that "the incident has left me deeply concerned about the growing boldness of such groups who disrupt public safety and peace."
The "Swamp Thing" actor continued, "This situation highlights a larger issue of hooliganism on our streets and the need for effective law enforcement responses to such behavior. As a citizen and a parent, I find it unacceptable that groups can freely engage in this kind of behavior, causing fear and chaos, while the response from authorities seems insufficient."
