The ex-boyfriend of actress Sarah Hyland was ordered to stay away from theModern Family star after she said he choked and threatened her.
Hyland, 23, obtained the temporary restraining order on Friday after stating in court papers that actor Matt Prokop had been verbally and physically abusive.
Prokop was ordered to stay 100 yards away from the actress, her home, workplace and dog, and not attempt to contact her. An Oct. 10 hearing was set.
Hyland wrote that Prokop pinned her to her car in May.
"He placed both of his hands around my throat and began to choke me," Hyland wrote.
"His grip was so tight that I could not breathe or speak. I was scared and in fear for my life."
Hyland said she did not report the incident to police because Prokop was apologetic and said he would never do it again.
