Shania Twain Photo - 28 March 2011 - Toronto, Ontario, Canada - His appearance at the Juno Awards Sunday did not impress Shania Twain much, nor Toronto Police. In fact a 50-year-old Ottawa doctor, who earlier this month had stalking charges against him withdrawn, was arrested on breaches of court orders and is to appear in court this morning at Old City Hall.
Dr. Giovanni Palumbo was taken into custody on the floor of the Air Canada Centre Sunday, just moments before the Timmins-native was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. The problem is the court has stated he is not to be within 500 metres of the legendary Canadian songstress.

Previously the court has heard allegations that Palumbo had sent letters and floral arrangements to Twain in Switzerland and is alleged to have shown up at her Muskoka cottage. On a previous arrest, media reports indicate, he was wearing a Shania T-shirt and was carrying her autobiography. Palumbo, who has had his medical licence suspended and re-instated, spent a significant period of time as a mental health patient at the Royal Ottawa Hospital and was in court on criminal harassment charges involving Twain March 7.
