Kendall Jenner’s stalker ‘re-arrested after he’s released from psychiatric hold’
A man accused of stalking Kendall Jenner was released from custody, then arrested the next day based on a development in the investigation.
The accused stalker, a native of Canada named John Ford, was arrested Tuesday while he was trespassing on the property of the reality star, as he was on her porch after breaking into the gated community where the 22-year-old model resides, TMZ reported.
To access the exclusive property, Ford, 37, had to scale the side of a mountain adjacent to the property, the outlet reported.

Authorities put him on a 5150 psychiatric hold, at which point – due to his lack of insurance – he was transported to Los Angeles County Hospital for a psychiatric evaluation, the outlet reported.
Ford was determined to be stable mentally by a psychiatrist, and released from the hold well short of the 72-hour maximum.

He had been arrested in September after a break-in, pleaded guilty to a trespassing charge, and was issued a restraining order to remain at least 1,000 feet in distance from the property.
He did not obey, as he was spotted on the property twice since, with authorities placing him into custody the second time he was spotted on Tuesday.
Ford is slated for an arraignment, insiders told the outlet, and could be released on his own recognizance ahead of a potential trial.
Kendall’s legal team, headed by Shawn Holley, is seeking to obtain a civil restraining order against Ford, which would implement additional restrictions on the proximity he could be to the gated community where Kendall lives.
The gated community where the oldest daughter of Caitlyn and Kris Jenner lives is taking additional security measures in both manpower and fencing, TMZ previously reported. The area is a hotbed for celebs, with stars such as Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears and Paris Hilton living there, or having lived there before.
