Audrina's Obsessed Fan Dodges Bullet

An obsessed fan of Audrina Patridge received the best gift of all this holiday season ... community service (his other options were a lot worse).

Zachary Loring was sentenced to 30 days community service after pleading guilty to one count of vandalism for defacing an electrical box in Los Angeles. He was also charged with carrying a switchblade, but that count was dropped as part of the plea deal.

The court case is not connected to another legal problem facing Loring -- allegedly harassing Audrina. She obtained a restraining order against him after he allegedly showed up to her house and sent her creepy letters and drawings.

Loring was placed on 36 months probation and can't possess deadly weapons, aerosol paint containers, felt tip markers or indelible ink markers. He can carry a pencil.

is audrina borrowing rachel's glasses? is there a "famous person" with less personality on this or any other planet then that girl audrina, why anyone would stalk her is really amazing, who knows she may be paying the guy to stalk her just to get on sites like this, i think the judge must have thought similar, they should have made him be her butler for a month. happy new year to all the great stars of the hills, jersey shore and all of the other shows that have made tv what it is today.

The fact that this pic is of Rachel Uchitel and not Audrina makes it seem like TMZ is getting more like those mags that just make stuff up and post it...I'm disappointed, Harvey, you guys are usually on point!
