Ian Ziering is the latest celebrity victim of the California crime wave.
Ziering was caught up in a brawl with a group of people riding minibikes on Hollywood Boulevard Sunday. Ziering called on authorities to do something about “the growing boldness of such groups who disrupt public safety and peace.”
Polling in the last year shows two out of every three Californians believe crime is a “big problem” for them while living in the Golden state. Oakland and San Francisco residents have been facing violent crime, while Los Angeles has seen an uptick in retail burglaries.
California’s residents have left the state in record numbers in the last few years, many citing crime as a contributing factor.

Here’s a look at celebs hit by the Hollywood crime wave:
Ian Ziering
Ian Ziering and his 12-year-old daughter were allegedly “aggressively” attacked by bikers on Sunday. The “90210” actor explained to his Instagram followers that he and his daughter were “completely unscathed” after the altercation.
“I experienced an alarming incident involving a group of individuals on mini bikes. While stuck in traffic, my car was approached aggressively by one of these riders leading to an unsettling confrontation,” Ziering shared on Instagram. “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.”
Ziering could be seen outside his car on Hollywood Boulevard engaged in a brawl with a group of individuals, according to video obtained by TMZ. The video showed the 59-year-old actor take a swing at one of the minibike riders before being chased across the street by the group.
The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating the incident, according to TMZ.
The LAPD declined to provide a comment on the situation to Fox News Digital when reached.
