Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges has been granted a temporary restraining order against his ex-girlfriend, Mychelle Johnson, after accusing her of harassment, cyberstalking, and intimidation in a series of explosive court filings.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, a North Carolina judge ordered Johnson to remain at least 500 yards away from Bridges, his residence, and Hornets facilities. The order also instructs her not to contact or harass Bridges or his current girlfriend, Shara.
The filing centers around an alleged incident at Charlotte’s Spectrum Center during a Hornets game. Bridges claimed Johnson “abandoned” their four children with a nanny before allegedly driving to the arena intoxicated and checking into a nearby hotel. He further alleged that she stationed an accomplice in the hotel lobby and later hid behind his parked vehicle in the arena garage in an attempt to “tamper with its tires while he was on the court playing for the Charlotte Hornets.”
Bridges said his girlfriend and children were inside the arena at the time and claimed Johnson “knew those children had ridden in that vehicle” and “did not care.”
The NBA player also accused Johnson of carrying out a cyberstalking campaign in the days that followed. According to the petition, Bridges alleged she used a fake phone number to text him his own home address in an effort to frighten him. He additionally claimed Johnson contacted his attorney while pretending to be another woman who was allegedly pregnant by him, prompting his legal team to arrange a paternity test before realizing the claim was false.
In the filing, Bridges described Johnson’s behavior as “a deliberate campaign of terror by a mother who will abandon her own infant and children … and stop at nothing to pursue her vendetta.”
Johnson has not publicly responded to the allegations or the restraining order.
