Moment 90210 star Ian Ziering hugs his 10-year-old daughter after brutal street fight – new video appears to show bikers DID NOT touch his SUV and the star starts a fight
Actor Ian Ziering comforted his crying daughter moments after his terrifying street fight.
The 90210 star was involved in an altercation on Hollywood Boulevard with members of a minibike gang on Sunday.
Ziering, 59, claimed the brawl started after the group “aggressively” passed over his $100,000 Mercedes SUV and he stepped outside to check the damage.
However, a new angle on the street fight suggests it was Ziering who first escalated the confrontation.
Footage obtained at the time showed the actor exchanging blows with the group, with a separate clip showing them smashing his windshield while his petrified daughter was still inside.

The latest video of the aftermath shows Ziering once crossing the road to comfort sobbing daughter Penna.
As the motorcyclists begin to move away from the scene, a woman in a pink top is seen sprinting across the road towards Ziering's damaged vehicle.
She helps Penna out of the car and into the arms of her father, who hugs her and rubs her back.
She buries her face in her father, who plants a kiss on her head as onlookers ask if she is okay.
Ziering pulls her out of the embrace to talk to her, revealing her tearful and panicked face.
The youngster looks wildly around at the crowd that has formed before looking back to her father for reassurance as the clip ends.
Ziering subsequently stated that both he and his daughter were “completely unharmed” after the incident. He also claimed that the altercation was instigated by the gang.
However, new footage has since emerged showing how he appeared to be the first to make the confrontation physical.
The 90210 actor claimed the altercation on Hollywood Boulevard started after a motorcycle gang “aggressively” passed his vehicle and he got out to assess the damage.
However, new footage shows Ziering immediately leaving the vehicle in an apparent rage before pushing one of the bike gang members, leading to the brawl.
Ziering said both he and daughter Penna escaped the altercation “completely unscathed,” despite their obvious distress
Footage from another vehicle shows the motorcycle gang passing Ziering's vehicle very close, but apparently without touching it.
Seconds later, the star leaves the driver's side, slams his door and stalks toward one of the motorcycle gangs.
He then reaches out and pushes the motorcyclist repeatedly with both hands, causing him and another motorcyclist to fall from their vehicles.
Following the incident, Ziering posted on Instagram that the confrontation began after he attempted to exit his vehicle to assess any damage to his car caused by the passing group.
“While stuck in traffic, my car was aggressively approached by one of these drivers, leading to a disturbing confrontation,” he said.
'To assess any damage, I got out of my car. This action unfortunately escalated into a physical altercation, which I navigated to protect myself.
“I am relieved to report that my daughter and I are both completely unharmed, but the incident has left me deeply concerned about the growing audacity of such groups to disrupt public safety and peace,” Ziering added on Instagram.
'This situation highlights a wider problem of hooliganism on our streets and the need for effective law enforcement responses to such behaviour.'

Ziering shares equal custody of Penna, as well as 12-year-old daughter Mia, with ex-wife Erin Ludwig. The former couple married in 2010, separated in 2019, and their divorce was finalized in 2022.
Ludwig stated in an Instagram post that she would not comment on the incident to protect her daughter's privacy.
TMZ reported that Ziering was listed as a “victim” based on a complaint to police. LAPD said Wednesday that no arrests have been made in connection with the incident
