PALM SPRINGS, Calif. — A man has pleaded not guilty to kidnapping actor Jeremy London and forcing him to use drugs, the Riverside County district attorney’s office said Thursday.
Brandon Adams, 26, of Palm Springs remained jailed after being arraigned Tuesday on five charges, including kidnapping and theft, said Michael Jeandron, a district attorney’s spokesman. A statement from Palm Springs police said London, who appeared on TV’s “7th Heaven” and “Party of Five,” was kidnapped while changing a flat tire June 10.
The 37-year-old actor told police that several men helped him and he offered them a ride home. Police said one man later pulled a gun and forced London to drive around, buy alcohol and take drugs.
London said he escaped but his car was stolen. Police later found it and on June 11 arrested Adams.
It was not immediately known whether Adams had retained an attorney. The Associated Press
