Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Pint-sized actor Verne Troyer has been hit with a restraining order for allegedly threatening a former beauty queen. Yvette Monet was granted a temporary restraining order in early October.

RadarOnline.com obtained the court document filed by Monet, in which she stated that she used to date Troyer but they have broken up.

The 40-year-old actor, who stands 2 ft. 8 in., allegedly constantly sent her texts and emails despite her numerous requests that he stop. He has also sent her threatening messages, warning her that she better watch herself. He also told Monet that his friend has a gun and will do anything he says.

Monet requested that Troyer be asked to stay at least 100 yards away from her, her home, workplace, and vehicle.

The TRO is in effect until December.
