Deputies Visit Keegan Allen's Home Amid Investigation Into Grocery Store Attack
Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department deputies were seen leaving the actor's residence as the probe into his robbery continues.
Deputies from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department visited the home of actor Keegan Allen on Friday as part of an ongoing investigation into an attack that occurred the previous night. The visit to Allen's residence in West Hollywood, California, followed an incident where the "Pretty Little Liars" star reported being robbed at gunpoint and knifepoint.
Allen, 37, detailed the encounter in a video posted to his Instagram account, showing his face covered in blood. He stated that two masked individuals attacked him outside Laurel Supply, a luxury grocery store. According to Allen, the assailants struck him and demanded his watch and bracelet before fleeing.
Exclusive surveillance footage obtained by Page Six appears to show two individuals dressed in black confronting Allen in the store's parking lot. One individual is seen brandishing what seems to be a handgun, while the other displays a knife. The footage captures Allen removing his watch before one of the suspects strikes him in the head with a handgun. Both suspects then left the scene in an unspecified vehicle.
Responding to the incident, dispatchers could be heard discussing an "assault" at the grocery store's location on Santa Monica Boulevard. A representative for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that deputies made contact with Allen at the scene. The representative stated that one suspect pointed a silver handgun at Allen while the other displayed a knife, demanding his watch and bracelet. Allen was subsequently struck in the face with the handgun before the suspects fled.
Allen appeared to have sustained a laceration to his forehead. Emergency medical personnel evaluated him at the scene, but he was not transported to a hospital. However, Allen later commented on Instagram that he believed he had suffered a concussion and had been admitted to a hospital.
Dried blood was visible on the sidewalk near the location of the incident on Friday morning. The investigation is ongoing, and the suspects have not been publicly identified. Allen expressed concern about safety in the area following the attack, stating, "West Hollywood is not safe anymore."
