The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that deputies responded to a robbery report at around 9:05 p.m. on the 8400 block of Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood. According to authorities, two men dressed in black approached the victim, with one pointing a silver handgun and the other a knife before demanding his watch and bracelet.

“These two dudes hit me in the head and pointed a gun at me with a knife and then took off,” Allen said in the video. He also claimed the men struck him several times before taking his watch and leaving the scene.

The footage included security video from outside Laurel Supply, an upscale grocery store where Allen said the robbery took place. The recording appeared to show two men approaching the actor as he loaded items into his truck in the parking lot. One of them appeared to strike him in the head with a gun.

Authorities confirmed that the victim was struck in the face with a handgun and sustained a laceration to his forehead. Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel evaluated him at the scene, but he was not transported to a hospital. The suspects fled in an unknown vehicle, and the sheriff’s department asked anyone with information to contact West Hollywood Station detectives.

In his Instagram post, Allen expressed concern about safety in the area and called for the alleged attackers to be identified. He also questioned whether nearby surveillance cameras would help investigators locate the men. Allen said he planned to share more information about the incident later.

Allen played Toby Cavanaugh throughout the original run of Pretty Little Liars from 2010 to 2017. He played Liam Walker in Walker from 2021 to 2024 and appeared as a guest on ABC’s police drama The Rookie earlier this year.
