After telling Instagram followers he was robbed and beaten last week in West Hollywood, California, Keegan Allen is on the mend and expressing his gratitude to those who supported him.
“Healing,” the former Pretty Little Liars star wrote in an Instagram Stories update on Saturday afternoon, as he shared a photo of the four stitches on his temple. “Will update more soon. Thank you to medical team … and law enforcement and everyone reaching out.”
Hours later, he posted another snapshot, this one of bloody gauze. “Thank you to all the amazing doctors, nurses, and security at Cedars,” he wrote in that caption, referring to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
In another pic from the hospital, he photographed his shirt and the cross around his neck, both of which were splattered with blood. Another upload shows an ice pack and Allen’s blood-streaked hands, legs, and shoes. “I will update more soon,” he wrote.

On Thursday, Allen shared an Instagram video of himself with blood running down his head. “I was just robbed of my watch outside of Laurel Supply,” he said, referring to the West Hollywood organic market on the 8400 block of Santa Monica Boulevard off Holloway Drive. “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. They took my watch, though.”
The actor also posted apparent security-camera footage of two people confronting him and one person assaulting him.
“West Hollywood is not safe anymore,” he wrote in the caption. “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.”
According to the Los Angeles Times, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said deputies responded to a robbery report at the store around 9:05 p.m. local time on Thursday. The department said an unspecified victim told deputies that “one suspect pointed a silver handgun at the victim while the other pointed a knife and demanded the victim’s watch and bracelet.” And shortly thereafter, the department said, the victim “was struck in the face with the handgun.”
Anyone with information that could help the investigation is asked to contact West Hollywood Station detectives at (310) 855-8850, the Times adds.
