Palm Springs police confirm that actor of “Party of Five,” Jeremy London, found himself in a bit of trouble last week in Palm Springs.
Police say London, 37, was trying to fix a flat tire on his car along N. Palm Canyon, when several men stopped to help him.
Afterward, he offered to give them a ride home. A short time later, police say he was held a gunpoint in the vehicle by one of the men, and forced him to drive to various locations throughout the city, purchase alcohol, and use illicit drugs.
London was eventually able to escape from the car, which the culprits stole. It was later found in the Gateway area of Palm Springs.
