Arrest warrant issued for Power Rangers actor Hector David Rivera

An arrest warrant was issued on July 31 for American actor Hector David Rivera after a video showed him pushing a man in his 60s who used a walker, the police in the American state of Idaho said.

Rivera, who appeared for years as the Green Ranger in Power Rangers films and television shows, was charged with misdemeanor battery in Idaho after video footage surfaced last week showing him in a dispute with the older man, said Ms Carmen Boeger, a spokes woman for the Nampa Police Department.

Nampa is a city west of the capital city of Boise with more than 100,000 people.

The video, captured on July 26 on a bystander's dashboard camera, begins with a dispute over a carpark spot between a man wearing a jersey of American football team New England Patriots and another man using a walker.
