NEWSLETTER: Chris Pratt Under Fire for Alleged Explosive Altercation with Neighbor Over Property Line Dispute in Los Angeles
A video clip of an argument between actor Chris Pratt and a neighbor, resulting in a physical shoving match, has gone viral, prompting an investigation by the Los Angeles Police Department. The incident, which occurred on Tuesday at approximately 2:00 PM local time outside Pratt's residence in the Hollywood Hills, began over a disputed property line when the neighbor, identified as 47-year-old landscaper Robert Guevara, accused Pratt of illegally trimming trees on his land. Witnesses reported that Pratt, 44, used expletives before pushing Guevara, who then fell backward onto a concrete path, sustaining minor scrapes. Pratt's representatives have denied any misconduct, claiming the altercation was started by Guevara, who was allegedly trespassing. The LAPD is reviewing footage from multiple security cameras to determine if charges of simple assault or battery are warranted. Guevara has stated he will pursue a civil lawsuit, alleging emotional distress. This follows a series of public relations challenges for Pratt, including his controversial comments about climate change and his recent endorsement of conservative political candidates.
