Ryan Seacrest had a restraining order against Chidi Uzomah that ordered him to stay away at least 100 yards form Ryan and also stay clear of Ryan's home, job and vehicle. And of course - no contact - direct or indirect - with Ryan. That restraining order was filed by Ryan's lawyer Blair Berk.

Now Uzomah has handcuffs on his wrists and it turns out that he was training to be an actor, but that doesn't take away from the fact that everyone around Ryan was convinced that Uzomah presents a real danger. So he is being held for felony stalking.

He was already convicted last month for three misdemeanours, after attacking Ryan's bodyguard at a hospital in Orange County - and he did have a knife in his pocket. Just a few days before this incident, he went to the Secrets of Acting studio and met with acting coach Charles Tentindo. Said he wanted training and did a scene - oddly enough -  some kind of an interrogation stuff - where he was to act as a witness and we hear he is pretty much terrible. And Tentindo also said that Uzomah seemed very sad and depressed - like he had a black cloud over him.

He was just put on probation for one year and ordered to stay away from Ryan. So now the DA has a reason to slap him with violating his probation.

He was taken into custody now - just a little while after showing up at the E! Building in Los Angeles - and yes - he was carrying a knife.

Let's hope Ryan can breathe easier now and go on doing what he does so well!
