'Kumar' Actor Robbed at Gunpoint in D.C. (Kal Penn - actor turned Obama admin official)
TMZ ^ | 04/20/10 | Staff

Posted on 04/20/2010 10:28:09 AM PDT by OldDeckHand

TMZ has learned Kal Penn -- aka Kumar from that "White Castle" movie -- was robbed at gunpoint early this morning while walking in a neighborhood in Washington D.C.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Penn claims a man carrying a gun approached him around 1:20 AM and took his wallet and other personal property.

We're told Penn immediately reported the incident to authorities, who have launched an investigation into the matter.

Multiple calls to Penn's rep were not returned.

Of course it is the asshat from the Mac commercials, would you really expect him to be a McCain fan?

"Is that the asshat from the “I’m a Mac” commercials on the right (next to the hot girl)."

Yes. His name is Dustin or Justin sombodyorother. The chick in between them stars on House, as did Penn before he quit to work for Obama.

They all embody the "I'm rich and famous, so I must be smart" ethos.

The little Marxist should celebrate this successful redistribution of wealth.

He got a preview of the "at gunpoint" version coming soon.

Sure looks like him. Although I most likely disagree with his politics I thought he did a pretty good job in that last Bruce Willis "Die Hard" movie, although he was playing essentially the same character from the PC/Mac commercials.

That movie was one of the most obnoxious ones made in the last decade.

I read a week or so ago that Kal Penn is leaving his job at the White House, and will begin filming another Harold and Kumar movie by early this summer. Nice DC send-off for the actor.

Also, I wonder why this robbery (without injury) story about an Obama staffer hits the presses so quickly, while the story about the brutal beating of the two (R) people in New Orleans is still percolating under the MSM radar?

I bet he said, “Please, don’t shoot me. I’m on your side. I work for Obama.”

This is the schmoe, I think, who compared being called on by BO to server to "Being called by Jesus Christ".

Even Mrs Wbill - a Democrat - called BS on that clunker.

So circumspect, lol. Must've been a gay neighborhood or something.

Big deal. Most Americans get robbed in D.C. every day without even going there.

He just announced he is leaving the Obama administration to return to Hollywood.

"Kumar" goes from White House back to Hollywood

I'll bet he wished he left a bit sooner.

Stupid - walking around at 1:30 AM is just inviting what happened to him - just about anywhere.

:-) interesting observation.

Perp not described. Neighborhood not described. I'll take a guess and say that either you're right and this fool was somewhere embarrassing, or the perp was black.
