Former "7th Heaven" star reportedly had one hellish night.
Actor Jeremy London, who appeared in the long-running drama in the late 1990s, was allegedly nabbed by a pair of kidnappers last week and terrorized at gunpoint for nearly five hours, according to RadarOnline.
The 37-year-old twin brother of actor Jason London, and former "Party of Five" star, told police he was forced to "smoke dope then purchase booze" during the ordeal, a Palm Springs Police Department officer told the gossip Web site.
London, who was busted in 2004 for alleged drug possession and admitted he went into rehab last year for an addiction to prescription pills, told investigators he was nabbed by the pair while changing a flat tire on the evening of June 10, said Sgt. Steve Douglas.
The armed duo then threatened to shoot him and forced him to smoke either crack cocaine or amphetamines, the officer said.
"He spent hours thinking he was going to die and he did what he had to do not to end up shot or dead," a source close to the actor told RadarOnline.
The actor managed to escape early the next morning, and the pair was arrested in Palm Springs, where London's car was found.
London admitted to People in April that he suffered from drug addiction.
"There were times I didn't care if I died," he said, telling the magazine he was ingesting up to 16 pills a day. "I felt like I was losing everything."
London, who has one son, Lyrik, 3, is in the midst of a divorce from actress Melissa Cunningham, whom he married in 2006.
