Mini-bikers busted after Hollywood Boulevard brawl with actor Ian Ziering

Two people have been arrested in connection with a brawl on Hollywood Boulevard that involved actor Ian Ziering, best known for his role in “Beverly Hills 90210,” on New Years Eve last year, authorities announced Tuesday.  

The fight broke out near Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue at around 3 p.m. after a confrontation between Ziering and a member of a minibike gang over possible damage to the actor’s vehicle.  

Much of the chaotic confrontation was captured on cellphone cameras with video of the brawl involving the “Sharknado” actor first being released by TMZ.  

The footage showed Ziering confronting and shoving one of the minibike gang members who was blocking his vehicle before three to four additional bikers jumped into the fray, one of them throwing a punch that appeared to hit the actor in the face. 

“One of the minibike riders is captured swinging an object at the victim, nearly striking him,” the Los Angeles Police Department said in a news release. “After the assault, the minibike riders vandalized the motorist’s vehicle while his 10-year-old child remained in the front seat.”

On Jan. 1, the now 60-year-old actor addressed the incident on social media.  

“While stuck in traffic, my car was approached aggressively by one of these riders leading to an unsettling confrontation,” Ziering posted to Instagram. 

He went on to describe the incident as “hooliganism” and called for “effective law enforcement” to help solve what he thinks is a larger issue.

“We must address the underlying issues that lead to such disruptive behavior and ensure that our streets are safe for everyone. I urge city officials and law enforcement to take decisive action against such lawlessness and provide the necessary resources to prevent future occurrences,” Ziering stated. 

During their investigation, detectives with LAPD’s Hollywood Division used the video and additional information gathered from witnesses to identify two of the suspects, now identified as 20-year-old Rosemead resident Jacob Esteban Hernandez and 40-year-old L.A. resident Angie Teresa Guizar.  

Both were taken into custody at around 6 a.m. on May 21 after officers with the LAPD’s Metro Division served warrants at two separate residences.  

Hernandez was booked for felony vandalism, with bail set at $50,000. Guizar was booked on assault with a deadly weapon, with bail set at $30,000.  

Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact LAPD Detective Douglas Hall at 213-927-2971. Those wishing to remain anonymous can call L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477 or leave tips online at www.lacrimestoppers.org.
