Actress Bonnie Somerville Held At Gunpoint, Boyfriend Shot
Actress Bonnie Somerville and her boyfriend were guests at the T-Mobile G1 launch party on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood last night. They walked to the valet parking area to retrieve their car at 2:00 a.m. when they were held at gunpoint by two assailants who demanded money.
Somerville’s boyfriend argued with the men and Somerville was reluctant to turn over her purse. A scuffle ensued and the boyfriend was shot in the back with a .22 caliber handgun. The two assailants then fled in a tan colored sports utility vehicle and are still at large, reportedly without getting any money from the pair.
Somerville’s injured friend was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where he is listed in good condition. His identity has not been released by police. Bonnie’s publicist says that Bonnie is fine and will issue a statement at the end of the weekend.
Bonnie made several guest appearances on the popular sitcom Friends, where she played Ross’ girlfriend Mona. She has also appeared on NYPD Blue, Grosse Pointe and The O.C.
Bonnie is also a singer with the Band From TV, a group comprised of actors Greg Grunberg, Bob Guiney, James Denton, Hugh Laurie, Barry Sarna, Brad Savage, Rich Winer and Chris Kelley.
Check out photos of Bonnie, including those with green background that were taken at the T-Mobile G1 party prior to the robbery attempt.

Here’s a Kwiz for Kidz.:
You run into some people whose actions indicate they are obviously drugged up. They outnumber you. They are armed and you are not.
What will happen if you argue with them?
