Arrested pursuer Kate Beckinsale

At last, Kate Beckinsale, who lived in fear for a year, can breathe freely and do not focus on her safety. Last weekend, police arrested a 45-year-old man who threatened the 44-year-old actress with reprisals.

Obsessed with a Star

About the existence of Iowa resident Terry Lee Reppa, Kate Beckinsale learned last year. For the first time the stalker showed himself at an event in Salt Lake City, then he just touched the back of his idol, which he proudly reported in social networks. Achievement inspired an inadequate American for new achievements and he began to pursue a celebrity across the country and even threatened with a knife.

Stress and a constant sense of anxiety became Kate's constant companions, and the guards of the order, who admitted that the criminal suffered "an irrational obsession," could not catch her fan in any way.

Catching on live bait

Bekinsale's visit to Florida at Comic-Con in Tampa Bay was planned in advance, so the police, suggesting that Terry Lee Reppa might appear here to get to his victim, stepped up security measures. At first, Kate thought to cancel her trip to a meeting with comic book lovers, but decided not to run from danger.

One of the disguised law enforcement officers identified Terry. He was arrested and taken to Hillsborough prison. Performance of the actress before the public was in question, but she, having filled all the necessary papers in the site, met with the fans.
