Seacrest's lawyers obtained the stay-away order Friday, hours after they say Chidi Uzomah was detained at the E! Entertainment Television headquarters in Los Angeles.

The filing claims Uzomah was carrying a knife and was trying to see the popular television and radio host.

Police refused to confirm details about the incident. Jail records reviewed Friday did not indicate 25-year-old Uzomah had been booked.
