Miley Cyrus stalking suspect to appear in court
TYBEE ISLAND, Ga. — A 53-year-old man charged with attempting to stalk Miley Cyrus is headed for court in Georgia, where the teen superstar was shooting a movie on the Atlantic coast.
Mark McLeod is scheduled to appear at a preliminary hearing Tuesday afternoon. He’s being held at the Chatham County jail on misdemeanor charges of attempted stalking, disorderly conduct and obstruction of a police officer.
Police say McLeod twice came to Tybee Island looking for 16-year-old Cyrus and tried to breach a security perimeter around the movie set in June. Police say McLeod told an officer he was secretly engaged to marry the “Hannah Montana” star.
Cyrus finished filming the movie “The Last Song” on Tybee Island and in nearby Savannah last week.
