Being one of the most famous individuals on the planet certainly has its drawbacks at times. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce certainly dealt with that this weekend when a suspected stalker who had threatened the couple online tried to gain access to one of her concerts.
According to a report from the Associated Press, an American man who made online threats against Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce was detained while trying to enter one of her concerts in Gelsenkirchen, Germany this week.
“The suspected stalker, a 34-year-old whose name wasn’t released, had a ticket to Swift’s concert at Gelsenkirchen’s Veltins-Arena on Wednesday, police said in a statement. They said that, because an initial investigation couldn’t entirely rule out a risk, he was detained during entry checks to the event,” the Associated Press reported.
“Police said the man had made threats against Swift and her partner on social media. They said he had been detained following tips from organizers of the event.”
It’s not clear what motive the suspected stalker had for attempting to attend the concert after making online threats against the couple, but it was a terrifying situation nonetheless and police said that the man will be kept in custody until her concerts in the city are over.
Kelce was not at the concert as he prepares for training camp with the Kansas City Chiefs.
