LOS ANGELES (AP) - A man arrested outside Ryan Seacrest's workplace has pleaded not
guilty to a felony stalking charge.
Chidi Benjamin Uzomah Jr. entered the plea Tuesday through an
attorney. A court commissioner ordered Uzomah to stay 500 yards
away from Seacrest if he is released from jail on $150,000
bail.
Los Angeles police arrested Uzomah at the E! Entertainment
Television headquarters in Los Angeles on Friday. A request for a
civil restraining order stated he was carrying a knife at the
time.
Uzomah appeared in street clothes during Tuesday's hearing and
agreed to be represented by a public defender. He is due back in
court Nov. 16.
Seacrest did not attend.
