Keegan Allen JC Olivera/Getty Images Keegan Allen has been robbed and attacked at gunpoint.
Allen, best known for starring as Toby Cavanaugh in all seven seasons of Pretty Little Liars, shared a video on Instagram late Thursday night revealing that he had been robbed and assaulted outside a high-end grocery store in West Hollywood on Wednesday night.
In the video, which appears to have been taken shortly after the attack, Allen showed his bloody face and appeared rattled.
“I was just robbed of my watch outside of Laurel Supply. These two dudes hit me in the head and pointed a gun at me with a knife and then took off. They had masks on and took my watch, though. They took my fucking watch. Damn it,” he said.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department shared with The Hollywood Reporter that deputies responded to a reported armed robbery in the 8400 block of Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood at approximately 9:05 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 8.
According to the department, the victim reported that he was approached by “two adult male suspects dressed in black clothing. According to the victim, one suspect pointed a silver handgun at him while the second suspect brandished a knife. The suspects demanded the victim’s watch and bracelet. During the incident, one of the suspects struck the victim in the face with the handgun, causing a laceration to his forehead. The suspects took the victim’s watch and fled the location in an unknown vehicle.”
The department said Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel medically evaluated the victim at the scene, but he was not transported to a hospital. The investigation remains ongoing.
“West Hollywood is not safe anymore,” Allen wrote in the caption of his Instagram post. “Robbed at gunpoint and knifepoint by two young men that threatened to KILL me over my watch and would have! God said no tonight. My life for a watch.”
Allen said he would share more updates soon and called for help identifying his attackers.
“Will update more soon. Let’s hope all these Flock cameras that @karenbassla @gavinnewsom and everyone thinks will stop crime can find these very dangerous criminals. God bless,” he continued.
In the comments on his post, Allen said he was in the hospital and had suffered a concussion.
Allen’s manager has not yet responded to THR‘s request for comment.
