AceShowbiz - A man arrested outside "The Hills" star Audrina Patridge's Los Angeles home has pleaded no contest to a stalking charge and will undergo psychiatric evaluation. Zachary Loring entered the plea in a Los Angeles court on Monday, June 21.
He will undergo a 90-day diagnostic evaluation before he's sentenced on September 20. He faces up to two years in a state prison if experts find him to be competent.
Patridge did not appear in court. The reality star has previously testified in a civil restraining order hearing that she feared Loring.
Police reports suggest 25-year-old Loring repeatedly visited the star at her home and left her a number of disturbing items, including drawings and poetry. Loring has been banned from approaching Patridge and her family until 2014.
