Actor Keegan Allen, known for his roles in Pretty Little Liars and Walker, was assaulted and robbed by two men armed with a handgun and a knife outside a grocery store in West Hollywood, California, on Thursday night, Oct. 8, 2026. The suspects took his watch and bracelet before fleeing in a vehicle, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

Deputies responded to the robbery at approximately 9:05 p.m. in the 8400 block of Santa Monica Boulevard, near Holloway Drive. Allen, 37, sustained a laceration to his forehead and received medical evaluation from Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel at the scene. He was not transported to a hospital.

In a video shared on Instagram, Allen appeared with blood covering his face and clothing as he described the confrontation outside Laurel Supply. He also shared surveillance footage that appeared to show the suspects approaching him.

"I was just robbed of my watch outside Laurel Supply," Allen said in the video.

Allen said he was loading groceries into his vehicle when the two men confronted him. He also reported that the suspects threatened his life during the robbery.

"These two dudes hit me in the head and pointed a gun at me with a knife and then took off," Allen said.

The sheriff's department provided additional details about how the suspects carried out the robbery and injured the actor.

"One suspect pointed a silver handgun at the victim while the other pointed a knife and demanded the victim's watch and bracelet," the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said in a statement. "Shortly after, the victim was struck in the face with the handgun."

Authorities said the suspects obtained Allen's watch and escaped in a vehicle. Investigators have not announced any arrests, and detailed descriptions of the suspects were not immediately available.

Allen criticized public safety in West Hollywood in the caption accompanying his Instagram video, describing the incident as a threat to his life.

"West Hollywood is not safe anymore," Allen wrote in 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 also questioned whether surveillance technology would help investigators identify and locate the suspects, referencing Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

"Will update more soon. Let's hope all these flock cameras that (Karen Bass), (Gavin Newsom) and everyone thinks will stop crime can find these very dangerous criminals. God bless," Allen wrote.

Bass' office condemned the attack and said the county sheriff's department was leading the investigation. The office also indicated that the Los Angeles Police Department would assist regional law enforcement partners if needed.

"This is egregious — no one should have to experience something like this. West Hollywood is an independent city, and the LA County Sheriff's Department is responsible for leading this investigation. LAPD, as always, will assist regional partners as needed to ensure bad actors are held accountable," Bass' office said in a statement.

Allen played Toby Cavanaugh on Pretty Little Liars from 2010 to 2017 and Liam Walker on Walker from 2021 to 2024. He also appeared on The Rookie in 2026. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department continues to investigate the robbery.
