Ellen Page has earned a victory in court against someone making threats against her. TMZ is reporting that an alleged stalker, a man who threatened to kill the actress online, has been ordered to stay away from her.
The Los Angeles Police began investigating Joshua Michael Myers in August 2012 for threats he made against Page on Twitter. The threats were along the lines of "I'm going to murder Ellen Page. She's dead" and "Ellen Page if you continue to date Alexander [Skarsgard] I will K-1-l-l you in public in the next year ... Be it in a club, at a game, in a restaurant, or when you're signing autographs."
Wednesday (Jan. 16) Myers was ordered to stay away from Ellen Page -- not to have any contact with her in any way for three years. Page was in court when the order was handed down.

Just days after the national Veterans Day holiday, tragedy struck a group of wounded military veterans when a parade float carrying them to a "Hunt for Heroes" event was struck by a train in Midland, Texas -- around 340 miles west of Dallas.
The Huffington Post reports the heroes were to be feted at a banquet, followed by a deer hunting weekend. Both events have been canceled.
Two flatbed trucks decorated with flags and banners were carrying the veterans and their spouses, seated in chairs. The first truck safely crossed the tracks before the second truck was struck.
A spokesman for the city of Midland tells CBS Dallas Sgt. Maj. Gary Stouffer (37) Sgt. Maj. Lawrence Boivin (47) were pronounced dead at the scene. Army Sgt. Joshua Michael (34) Army Sgt. Maj. William Lubbers (43) died at Midland Memorial Hospital. Seventeen more victims are injured, seven listed in critical condition.
