“The Insider” has obtained the
temporary restraining order granted to
Ryan Seacrest on Friday against an accused stalker.
Chidi Benjamin Uzomah Jr., 25, has been ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from Seacrest, who claims he doesn’t know Uzomah and has “no desire to have any contact with him.” In the papers, Seacrest accuses Uzomah of stalking, harassing and violently pursuing him for the past two months. The star claims that on Friday, Uzomah showed up at one of Seacrest’s workplaces carrying a knife, and police apprehended him and took him into custody. The “
American Idol” host also cites another incident on Sept. 15 in which Uzomah showed up at Children’s Hospital of Orange County armed with a switchblade and “attacked a personal security guard attempting to protect me.” The papers say that as a result of the incident, Uzomah pleaded guilty to three misdemeanor counts, and as part of his probation, he was ordered to stay away from Seacrest. But the star claims that two weeks after the probation order was issued, Uzomah attempted to find him at a workplace in Burbank, CA. A hearing has been scheduled for the morning of Nov. 17.
