Ullrich reportedly jumped the fence of Til Schweiger on Friday evening and threatened the actor while he hosted a party. There was even a brawl according to the witnesses, and Ullrich asked to see a doctor after he had been taken to a police station.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_166714\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-166714\" style=\"width: 1250px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/profimedia-0381104835.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-166714\" src=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/profimedia-0381104835.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1250\" height=\"832\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-166714\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cyclist Jan Ullrich at the court in Palma de Mallorca after the police arrested him for allegedly climbing over the fence of his neighbor, Till Schweiger.\u00a0\u00a9 Profimedia, Splash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The former pro already appeared in court, and the judge issued a restraining order requiring the 44-year-old to keep away from Schweiger. This isn\u2019t the first brush with the law for the 2000 Olympic Road Race winner. Last September, Ullrich was handed a 21-month suspended prison sentence by a Swiss court for DUI and speeding.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Geraint Thomas jokes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Everyone with the right name seems to be having a ball at the moment.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-controller-wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Fair play to the guy.
