A Wildomar resident has been arrested outside Paris Hilton's home after allegedly breaking through a security checkpoint and banging on the celebrity's door, the Californian reported.
Maybe he was lost.
Our defense lawyers represent clients facing stalking charges in Los Angeles and the surrounding areas, including Wildomar and Riverside County. Stalking charges are growing increasingly more common, whether involving celebrities are a relationship gone bad. We reported on our Los Angeles Criminal Defense Lawyer Blog earlier this year about a case involving Olympic star Shawn Johnson.
In this most recent case the 36-year-old suspect was booked at the Van Nuys station on suspicion of battery and was held in jail in lieu of $20,000 bail. Police say he rode a bicycle through a gated checkpoint in the community where Hilton lives and ignored commands by guards to stop.
He then reportedly went to Hilton's home and began pounding on the door. When security guards attempted to stop him, he allegedly resisted, resulting in a scuffle that led to the battery charge. A battery charge in Los Angeles alleges that a defendant used force against another person. It can be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony.
In this case, the media reports that the suspect also had a bench warrant issued for his arrest last November after he allegedly failed to show up in court in connection with a vandalism charge.
Two months ago, a 31-year-old Redlands man pleaded not guilt to a count of attempted residential burglary after being accused of pounding on Hilton's door while wielding a pair of knives.
