German authorities detained a U.S. man on Wednesday for suspected stalking of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. The unidentified man, who possessed a ticket to Swift's concert in Gelsenkirchen, was apprehended at the venue's entry control point following a tip-off from organizers about his concerning online behavior.
Police investigations revealed threats made against Swift and Kelce on social media, prompting the man's detainment to ensure the safety of the singer, Kelce, and the 60,000 concertgoers. The court ordered the man to be held in custody until Saturday.
This incident occurred during Swift's ongoing Eras Tour, which includes seven shows in Germany over the next two weeks. After performances in Gelsenkirchen, Hamburg, and Munich, the tour's European leg will conclude with five nights in London in August.
