‘Beverly Hills, 90210’ Alum Sued Over Violent Brawl With Bikers

The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum was accused by plaintiff Jacob Hernandez, one of the bikers embroiled in the fight. Hernandez alleged that Ziering physically and verbally assaulted him during the incident on New Year’s Day 2023. He also alleged that Ziering provided “misleading information” to law enforcement, leading to Hernandez being arrested in May 2024 and held on $50,000 bail. His arrest and the subsequent media attention led to Hernandez facing “significant mental health issues.” The filing claims that Hernandez “does not want to leave his home for fear of public humiliation nor open his social media applications, as [Ziering’s] story was publicized vilifying [Hernandez].” Ziering, who is also known for the Sharknado film series, spoke about the altercation on social media and in interviews, calling the incident “alarming” and saying he was “approached aggressively” while in his vehicle.
