Minibike gang members arrested for attacking ‘90210’ actor Ian Ziering in Hollywood brawl



Two suspected members of a notorious mini-bike “gang” who allegedly attacked actor Ian Ziering were arrested Tuesday in connection to the viral New Year’s Eve traffic brawl.

Jacob Esteban Hernandez, 20, and Angie Tereza Guizar, 40, were taken into custody and hit with felony vandalism and assault with a deadly weapon charges, respectively, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.

The “Beverly Hills, 90210” alum, 60, clashed with the group of bikers, known as the 605 minibike gang, on Hollywood Blv. on Dec. 31, 2023.

Shocking video footage showed Ziering arguing with a biker just moments before other riders pulled up to attack as Ziering’s 12-year-old daughter helplessly sat in the car.

The “Sharknado” star was surrounded by at least four bikers, who seemingly stopped ahead of his vehicle in traffic, in the attack.

Footage showed Ziering throwing the first punch in the brawl before he ran from the pursuing group.

The riders vandalized Ziering’s car while his daughter was still inside, the LAPD said.

He was later seen consoling his crying daughter Mia.

As a result, Ziering’s $100K GLE SUV suffered a shattered windshield on the driver’s side as the passenger side-view mirror was smashed to pieces.

In a lengthy statement after the attack, Ziering revealed both he and his daughter were left unharmed.

“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 shared a day after the ordeal.

“I am relieved to report that my daughter and I are both completely unscathed, but the incident has left me deeply concerned about the growing boldness of such groups who disrupt public safety and peace.”

He 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.”

“I have always been an advocate for standing up against intimidation and misconduct, and this incident reinforces my belief in the importance of personal and community safety,” Ziering added, in part.

Hernandez and Guizar were arrested after warrants were served at their respective homes in Rosemead, Calif., and Los Angeles early Tuesday morning.

Now that arrests have been made, the LAPD is submitting the case to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, which will decide if charges will be filed.

Hernandez’s bail has been set at $50,000, while Guizar’s bail is set at $30,000.
