Kal 'Kumar' Penn mugged in Washington D.C.
It seems that 4/20 was not a good day for "Harold and Kumar" star Kal Penn.The former "House" actor was walking in a Washington D.C. neighborhood early Tuesday morning (April 20) when he was held up at gunpoint, reports TMZ.
The man made away with Penn's wallet and other personal property.
Authorities are currently investigating.
Penn is best known for the "Harold and Kumar" stoner movies and his stint on the medical drama "House," in which his character committed suicide. In real life, Penn had decided to leave the show so he could pursue work with the Obama administration.
Penn is reportedly going to shoot a "Harold and Kumar" Christmas movie this summer with co-star John Cho.

Is there a description of the perp?
legalize DRUGS! Then such crimes would not occur. And we need more opportunities for the disenfranchised
I suspect the mugger was someone who's seen one of the Harold and Kumar films.
That should narrow down the possible perpetrator to a relatively small pool of people.
