Ryan Seacrest granted order against male fan

A judge granted "American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest a temporary restraining order against a man arrested on suspicion of stalking the radio and television host outside his workplace on Friday, court records show.

Seacrest's attorneys obtained the stay-away order hours after they say Chidi Benjamin Uzomah Jr. was detained at the E! Entertainment Television headquarters in Los Angeles.

The filing claims Uzomah was carrying a knife and was trying to see Seacrest.

Uzomah, 25, is on probation for another incident involving Seacrest. Uzomah pleaded guilty to three charges after he attacked one of Seacrest's bodyguards.
