Ryan Seacrest has a stalker, and no, it's not a teenage girl with a crush.
Chidi Uzomah, who is a member of special forces in the U.S. Army reserves, was arrested Friday after showing up at the E! offices with a knife asking to see Seacrest.
Yikes!
But what I don't understand is why the Army released an official apology to Seacrest. TMZ spoke with Lt. Col. Nathan Banks, an Army spokesperson, who said, "We apologize to Ryan Seacrest. Pending the outcome of the local investigation, the Army will decide what further action to take. We take all matters of our personnel seriously."
It's not like they can be held accountable for something someone does off-duty, can they? Or am I missing something?
What do you think about this story? Should the Army have reason to apologize?

The reason the Army apologizes is the same reason you apologize to someone when it's your KIDS who did something wrong - every member of the military is supposed to represent the military, and set a good example for civilians.
I agree with RanaAurora, they apologize because every member of the military represents the military.
The story itself is really weird, you don't expect a "stalker" to be a grown man!
Yep... ^ that. Any member of the military knows this.. your actions, off duty or on, reflect upon the military. Which is why they take things like underage drinking, driving under the influence, and assaults/fights so seriously. You are expected to be an upstanding member of society.... stalking doesn't fit into that, lol.
Aaahhh, I see...thanks for explaining to me ladies!!
No problem. :)
We're a Navy family, so we have to observe the niceties that come along with it.
How about they apologized because they are better than producing and advancing a bazaar and morbid character. In times of war, so many get in that should not. I believe that for those that want this career, the military, if they are going to stand up for a celebrity, they should stand up and give more facts about the families of war and bring us all together. No-one should be alone ;)
