Brad Pitt Fires Back At Red Carpet Prankster With Swift Restraining Order

You don’t touch Brad Pitt without permission and get away with it – that much became clear, when Pitt filed for a restraining order against the red carpet harasser, cough, prankster, who reportedly lunged at the actor at the Maleficient premiere in Hollywood on Wednesday and struck him in the face.

Pitt is adding to the fire, though. He has also requested an emergency restraining order, forbidding Sediuk to come within 500ft of the star for the next five days. TMZ said, adding that the case has been forwarded to the L.A. city attorney for possible prosecution. And, as a final touch of cosmic retribution, the inappropriate antics may be considered a violation of the Ukranian TV personality’s probation. his lawyer Anthony Willoughby told AP. Willougby represented Sediuk in the Grammy trespassing case and is likely to represent him again.

"He's not a violent individual," Willoughby said. "He's an easygoing young man."

As defenses go, that line is unlikely to save Sediuk from further prosecution.
