Rihanna Gets Restraining Order Against Crazed Fan

Stalker from Pacific Palisades home burglary is reportedly released from custody and is "nowhere to be found."

Pop singer Rihanna didn't waste anytime after celebrating her 25th birthday in Hawaii to get a restraining order issued against a man charged with breaking into her neighbor's Pacific Palisades' home on Feb. 21, according to TMZ on Tuesday.

The man, Steveland Barrow, reportedly entered a home in the 900 block of Rivas Canyon Road he thought was Rihanna's, allegedly slept in her bed and took property.

His name was specified in court papers in which Rihanna claims she fears for her safety, and Barrow is now barred from coming 100 yards of the singer.
