Willie Aames -- Robbed at Gunpoint!

Posted Jan 8th 2008 11:35AM by TMZ Staff

Willie AamesTMZ has learned actor Willie Aames -- yeah, Buddy from "Charles in Charge" -- and his son Christopher were robbed with the help of a silver steel automatic handgun.

At around 10:00 PM last night in Hollywood, a man wearing a black jacket and blue jeans approached Willie and Christopher, pulled a gun and demanded money. They forked over a wallet and loose cash. Total damage -- about $15! Willie and Christopher were unharmed.

We're told the robber fled the scene in a black car. A popo investigation is underway. Willie's rep tells TMZ, "Willie is in town to shoot a celebrity reality show for VH-1. He credits what he's learned on the show in helping him to remain calm during this situation."

1. Sounds like a lot of you are real haters. NOW is the time to realize that life is too short to be so judgemental.

2. Very glad he and his son weren't hurt, but after reading the above comments I had to add.....I feel his personal character is nothing like Bibleman....my two cents? he is a Christian that is dishonest (personal experience), haughty, and arrogant. I wish you guys could meet the REAL Willie Aames. Or rather, Albert Upton. Don't start forgetting that what you see on tv isn't necessary the person in real life. You're giving him too much credit.

3. It looks like you people need a relationship with Jesus. You all are so cold, insensitive and unfeeling. If someone robbed you at gunpoint how would you feel? You people have a lot of nerve. Willie Aames is somebody if he's in Christ. I can't believe you people don't you have anything better to do? Can you say something mature and positive?

4. You people obviously need a relationship with Jesus. You all are insensitive, cold and unfeeling!! How would you feel if someone robbed you at gunpoint with your kid there? At least he handled the situation rationally I wonder how any of you know-it-alls would have responded. Yeah that's what I figured a bunch of spineless jellyfishes. I don't know Willie Aames personally but I respect anyone in Hollywood or who was in Hollywood to stand up for Christ. Hollywood is the Great Satan as Osama Bin laden would say not that I respect him either but you people make Osama look good!!!!!!!!!!!

11. Why didn't he turn into Bibleman and kick some butt? I guess God hates him.
