This Pretty Little Liars star just had a very close call. Keegan Allen, 37, who portrayed Toby Cavanaugh on the teen drama series was reportedly robbed at gunpoint on Thursday, October 9.

Per TMZ, two armed thieves allegedly stole Keegan’s watch and pistol-whipped him while the actor was out in West Hollywood. After he was approached by two men wearing all black, one shoved a gun in Keegan’s face while the other brandished a knife. One of the men hit the actor in the face with the gun before stealing his watch and bracelet and fleeing the scene.

Hours after the incident, Keegan posted a video to Instagram. While covered in blood, he spoke to the camera explaining the brutality of his experience, adding that the two men “had masks on.”
