"Lost" star Josh Holloway experienced a phenomenon even scarier than the show's black smoke in 2005 when he and wife Yessica were robbed at gunpoint in their Oahu home. Now the man who plays Sawyer can sleep easy, knowing that the perp in question is headed behind bars.
E! reports that convicted robber Ruben Royce was sentenced on Tuesday to 13 to 30 years in prison. In addition to holding up the Holloways, Royce burglarized four other homes in Hawaii.
On the night of the robbery, Josh and Yessica were awakened by Royce at 4am when he pointed a gun at them and demanded their cash and credit cards. The couple complied, and Royce then drove off in the actor's Mercedes-Benz.
Thankfully, he wasn't able to move the island of Oahu and hide -- police caught up with him a week later.
Do you think the sentencing is fair?
