FAN HACKS LINKIN PARK SINGER'S PHONE

A LINKIN PARK fan has been arrested after allegedly hacking into band's lead singer CHESTER BENNINGTON and his wife's e-mail and phone records.

CHESTER BENNINGTON of Linkin Park

Court documents allege DEVON TOWNSEND, 27, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, obtained personal phone numbers that Bennington had called and pictures he had taken with his camera phone.

Authorities believe she also hacked into the e-mail account of Bennington's wife, TALINDA, a former Playboy model, and has made threatening phone calls to her.

According to a federal affidavit, Talinda had reported the security breach on the couple's online account last month, saying she was worried about a "stalker".

Police traced the activity to Townsend, who admitted to the online hacking and the threatening calls.

A subsequent search of Townsend's home turned up Linkin Park memorabilia.

A judge has ordered electronic monitoring for Townsend, who was arrested last weekend (ends19NOV06).

No court dates have been set for the arraignment.
