Audrina Patridge’s Stalker False Alarm

Taking care of the day’s errands, Audrina Patridge ventured out to pick up her dry cleaning in Los Angeles on Thursday (October 1).

While the Hills hottie seemed to be in high spirits, reports tell that police arrived at her house in response to what turned out to be a false alarm earlier in the day.

The incident took place after someone mistook a paparazzo for her stalker, with police drawing their guns while a helicopter was dispatched to tend to the situation.

As previously reported by Gossip Center, Miss Patridge went to court the previous day - being granted a restraining order against her crazed fan, Zachory Loring.

Audrina Patridge Celebrates Court Victory

After spending most of her morning in court, Audrina Patridge was spotted out to lunch with friends earlier today (September 30).

The brunette beauty was granted a three year restraining order against her alleged stalker and looked pleased with those results as she lunched at Solar de Cahuengar restaurant afterward.

While in court, before the restraining order was granted, The Hills star was questioned by attorney Jeffery Rubenstein about several incidents which occurred with the alleged stalker, Zachory Loring, who did not appear in court, failed to stay 100 yards from Patridge.

“This has been a difficult and scary experience,” Patridge’s attorney said. “She hopes Mr. Loring gets help.”

Audrina's Alleged Stalker Back On The Streets

Audrina Patridge's alleged stalker is out of jail and free to go wherever he wants ... except, of course, for the 100 yards or so he's been ordered to stay away from Ms. Patridge.

We've learned 24-year-old Zachory Loring was released from jail yesterday, after being arrested Tuesday on two outstanding warrants. The warrants were issued after Loring skipped out on a few anger management classes -- which he was supposed to attend following his May arrest for vandalism and disturbing the peace.

Yesterday the judge freed Loring under the condition he finishes the anger management classes within the next two months. While he was locked up, Loring was served with Audrina's restraining order.

The Hills star requested a restraining order against Zachory after he was was allegedly spotted loitering outside her property on several occasions and then handed her a drawing of a woman being strangled, but the arrest and her request are unrelated.

Audrina Patridge's Real-Life Horror Show

Big week for Audrina Patridge—Sorority Row premiere, Maxim cover, live-tweeting with E! Online...a stalker scare?

In documents filed today in Los Angeles Superior Court, Patridge's lawyers requested an order of protection on behalf of the reality starlet and her roommate-brother, Mark, against a guy named Zachary Loering.

"I can confirm that Audrina Patridge filed a restraining order against an overzealous fan," her rep confirms to E! News. "Audrina and her family have no relationship with this person."

Court docs state that on Aug. 26, Patridge and her makeup artist sibling answered a knock at her front door to find Loring with a stack of poems, pictures and cards he had made for her—including one drawing of a woman being strangled, ominously scrawled with the future date, Sept. 15, 2009.

And it gets creepier.

Loring, 24, proceeded to offer Patridge a beer, telling her it was from his family's brewery and asking her to drink it in front of him. Patridge declined and shut the door, but three days later her surveillance cameras captured Loring camped out on her porch from 7 p.m. until 2 a.m., talking to himself throughout the footage, according to the court docs.

The following day, per the Patridges, the new scream-queen found Loring sitting on a wall on the side of her house, dressed to the nines in a suit and tie.

This time Audrina reported the incident, with police officers arresting Loring for outstanding warrants and trespassing. Loring, who was arrested in July on a switchblade-possession count, was released from jail a day later.

The 24-year-old Patridge "is in fear for her physical safety and emotional well being" and is so frightened, she hasn't been staying at her home or in Los Angeles County, the petition states.

The court granted a temporary order of protection, barring Loring from contacting, harassing, or trying to locate Patridge. He must be a minimum of 100 yards away at all times.

A hearing is scheduled on Sept. 30.
