Verne Troyer's former girlfriend has been granted a temporary restraining order against the actor over fears the star could order his heavies to kill her.
Yvette Monet told a judge that her Mini-Me ex had been bombarding her with abusive phonecalls, leaving her "awful messages" branding her a hooker.
In court documents, obtained by TMZ.com, Monet claims the actor's entourage carry guns, adding, "His friend Jose is a cop and has guns as well. I'm afraid for my life."
It's not the first time Troyer has had trouble with a former lover - in 2008, his sued his ex Ranae Shrider after she leaked a sex tape featuring the couple to the media.
