Alien Cited In Reality TV Lawsuit

In the latest bizarre lawsuit arising from a reality TV show, a Los Angeles woman is suing the Sci-Fi Channel because she was a "nonconsenting and unwitting victim" of a hidden camera prank that caused her to believe that she was actually being chased by a space alien on a remote desert road in California. According to a Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit filed this week, Kara Blanc thought she was headed last March to an "exclusive Hollywood industry party" with two actors (who, unbeknownst to Blanc, were working on the reality show "Scare Tactics") when the trio's car appeared to stall. At that point, the two male actors were set upon by an "alien," which caused Blanc to take off "running for her life through a dark, desert canyon area." The stunt, Blanc claims, caused her to be hospitalized several times and to suffer "severe physical and emotional injuries and damages." "Scare Tactics," produced by the team behind "Spy TV," is scheduled to debut in April with Shannen Doherty as the show host. (5 pages)
