Sources involved in the situation tell us Rob and Kristen were on their way home from LAX airport earlier this week -- when they noticed several paparazzi weaving through traffic to keep up.
We're told ... the couple -- concerned for their safety -- ducked into a nearby police station, hoping the cops could help out.
We're told the officers figured out a way to sneak the "Twilight" stars out of the building ... and they were able to get back on the road ... without the paps on their tail."

TMZ reporting on the papz. Whut? lol This is some good news about the police force if at all true... grain of salt lovies.
UPDATED!:from Gossip Cop
Most of what we cover is relatively harmless. Who’s dating whom, who’s been cast in what, what did a tabloid pull out of its you-know-where… keeping the celebrity news media honest is usually light business.
This is not one of those stories.
According to TMZ, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were driving home from LAX airport in Los Angeles when they noticed paparazzi on their tail, “weaving through traffic.” Sources say the pair stopped into a police station to ask for help, and cops, fortunately, were able to shepherd them safely back on to the road.
Pattinson and Stewart finished their trip without further incident. That’s the happy ending to a disturbing story.
But part of what makes it so frightening is that it now seems almost ordinary. Pattinson himself has been pursued on the road before, he and Stewart have had photo bounties placed on them by reckless outlets, and paps have often turned their film shoots into spectacle.
They’ve handled the circus responsibly, as do most of the celebrities subjected to an escalating paparazzi culture driven toward greater and greater immediacy. But luck and alertness go only so far.
At some point, someone — Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Brad Pitt, Britney Spears, someone — will not see the weaving paparazzi until the terrible moment when the star, the photographer, or the mom whose minivan happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time gets hurt.
Exactly how steep a price are these photos worth?

yes what a bloody shame,they cannot even go home in peace.they got their pic kissing what else are they after?.
i don not know but this scares me.maybe they should move to london.is not there another freaking couple to chase,this is unbearable.
at least the cops helped them out this time.they are trying to protect the house they have i think,because the same thing happened in malibu with Rob,if it was just a hotel they were going to they would not have bothered i think.
pissed off mood
c
LOL...

OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!

With all my love,

Thank god the cops were able to do something this time.The crazy paps situtation just seems to be getting out of control.Luckily Rob and Kristen didn't get hurt and were able to sneak away.
Glad the police was able to help and sneak them out the papz! Ulgh - hate the papz! Makes me think of what happened to Princess Di in the tunnel. So happy that R & K were able to be safe and off on their merry way!
This is VERY disturbing! We all know what happened to Princess Diana at the hands of these assholes! My God they need to be stopped!
So glad our loves are alright!
LoriJ
well yes Shaui a bucket of salt seems more appropriate,maybe we will hear something from gossip cop.
so i went and checked out the site and while i was there i came across the comments section.hilarious,the reasons some people come up with to why they went to the police.according to one,Rob is gay(lol,lol,lol)and Kristen has no career outside of twilight,so they went to the police to try and hide the fact that they are NOT dating.wow lol lol and another lol.
@lala TMZ is a celeb news/papz TV show. You can google them. They also have a website
maybe the police didn't want to intervene but kristen yelled at them! hahaha. coz they didn't help rob right? so why are they helping them now? yeah, because now they realize that safety has been compromised. stupid cops!
im really concerned about our couple. all the paps hounding them, that is really scary. anything can happen to them and to the people around them. everytime they go out and the paps sees them, i always fear for their safety. and now, fans and paps are hunting their love nest?! like wtf?! that's too much. too too much! may God bless and protect them always.
read bout this news, its kinda funny that TMZ's reporting how R/K allegedly got away from papz, jeez, maybe R/K are getting away from them too!!!
claire from manila
They are after another kissing shot or fight shot or cheating shot, whatever. I hate this business, its all about money. I think this will go on until the Twilight heat goes away.
I need gossip cop to clean this news :))....
But if this is true,im not happy about this situation :( the pappz is killing me! be safe rob and kristen.
~xoxo chechosweetgal~
It's TMZ......sooooo,you know!
All these papz stuff makes me so sad. And Lala, as you said it really scares me... I just want them to be safe and happy. And I don't know how, but I hope it turns out well for them...
With love, Maka
Gov. Schwarzenegger signed into law an Anti-Paparazzi Law in October 2009 and it went into effect January 2010. Whether this story is true or not, we've seen how the papz treat them and at some point the law would certainly apply. It's awful they get treated better across the boarder (or across the pond)than they do here at home (yes, I know Rob's from London, but you get my point). Something needs to be done before someone gets hurt.
i agree Ellen something has to be done.some celebs just pose for a photo in front of the paps in the hope that they let them go.but R&k just do not want to that,they have their reasons.but the more they move against the current the more they are going to be hounded i am afraid.ultimately there is always a price to pay whichever way they decide to handle this.
i hope this is true , but with tmz you never know
coz whichever way, they will never win :( they've been hiding for so long and papz are out there to get the money shot. now that they got the money shot, look what happened? more and more papz hounded them to get MORE money shots! its very true what kristen said, "they won't stop there. they will ask for specifics" and that's exactly what they are doing now. now that everyone knows they are a couple, papz want to go deeper even finding the house where they stay together and looking for more proofs. i hate this! its a mess! i know felt sooo very bad for them. finding true love in the weirdest wildest situations. hay...
i cant make nice robsten videos but if i could i'll make one and i'll put the song Somewhere Only We Know by Keane. i hope someone will make one because this is the perfect song for them right now.
ANNOYING PAPZ! ugh...
what a life they got huh? i can't even believe they call what they do a job.
pshhh, invading peoples privacy and endangering peoples lives is part of their job too? pls, these guys need to be arrested. stop the craziness.
TMZ is annoying but pretty legit so i wouldn't be surprised if this is true...
Probably the paps that were chasing Rob and Kristen were TMZ's paps,that's why they know the "news" first hand.TMZ and Splash news are the worst of the worst.
Following them to try to see where they live? WTF? That is ALL kinds of wrong, I don't blame them for hating the paparazzi so much, they need to leave them alone. I hope one of us finds a paparazzi on the street one day and just punch them. I'm really glad that the police helped them out, at least they got home safe. <3
wow. i bet someday the thing that happend to princess diana will happen to one of these celebs. gosh why can't they just come up with a law!!!! these paps need to be stoped. im glad the police helped this time. i hope robsten don't get hurt. gosh this is just disgusting. first they take pics of there house. follow them everywhere they go and now they are following them on the road :( how in the world do people expect kristen to smile for these assholes? :/ people say oh they were just trying to take pics she doesn't need to be rude. WTF the paps were following princess D and look what happend. i can't belive that there isn't a law what is wrong with the world?
jeopardizing people's safety is never worth pictures and money...ever.
Hey Arnold! You used to be an actor, how about a real law that keeps celebrities from being victims? How about something simple: pictures at premieres, red carpet events and when they are working are okay. Pictures from any aspect of their private life are not. The photographer needs a signed release from the celeb for any of those.
Simple.
Write it.
Sign it.
Anon 3:31 and Anon 2:02 -- there is a law. Came into effect January 2010. Just needs enforcement.
i can't believe they allow all these paps to freely invade celebrities' privacy in USA. i've never seen such horrendous acts of photographers anywhere in the world. i can understand if they are being photographed while working because its part of the job. but outside work, they should let them live normal lives and be treated as regular citizens. robert and kristen just happened to be two young aspiring actors who got lucky in both their careers and lovelife that's it. i think there are so many insecure people around them who wants a piece of their fame.
there seriously needs to be laws or something- weaving?? that could cause so many accidents.
i do not know if this is true but i thought after Princess Diana's death paps are a bit more respectful in parts of europe- yes they still take pics but i don't think they go right in their faces and chase after them in cars.
its complete madness what they have to go through- i definetly wouldn't cope
It's stalking, pure and simple, and that is against the law. Celebrities should be allowed to slap restraining orders or cease and desist orders on these paps who apparently have no conscience or regard for the safety of the celebrity or bystanders. While I will admit to silent "squeeing" when the kiss photos hit the net, I was ashamed of myself at the same time, because that was a private moment meant for the two of them, and they don't owe us those kinds of pictures, or pictures of their house, or pictures of anything they do off the job, etc. There should be a line that should not be crossed, and it needs to be drawn before someone is horribly injured or killed. We need to do what we can to not support the rags that pursue these pics, so that maybe the demand will die down a little.
Amen Anon. 2:02! You would think Gov. Swartzenagger would understand, as he was in the limelight in the 80s/90s. He should get on it and put into effect a REAL anti-pap law that actually does something! The celebs who are not fame whores should all get a petition started, take it to the state capital and get it signed themselves. It seems that's the only way that something can be done. Also, can't Rob and Kristen go to court and get a restraining order barring paps from taking pics of their home or coming within so many feet of their personal space? Jennifer Garner told the paps that if they took any pics of her daughter, Violet, while she was arrivng at school, on school grounds or leaving school, that she would sue them. So far it's working.
@LoriJ: this is what I have been thinking about for quite a while now. (I feel its better not to think about it!) I do hope and pray it wont go to that extent. Love to everybody, BG
i don't know but i feel a lot better now that im not seeing any pictures of them on the net. i hope nothing will surface in the next few days. they should continue hiding or doing whatever they do to not be seen. it seems to be working. im so happy for this couple, ive never been happy for any couple i dont know or havent met personally before... but robsten is an exception. its sad if the media breaks them down. but i think they are stronger than ever coz when you've been through a lot together, its not very easy to break the bond. God bless them.
We have freedom of the press in this country. When anyone is in a public place it is not illegal to take their photograph. They're in public.
If they break another law in pursuit of that photograph, ie, wreckless driving, stalking, etc., then that's a different story.
The anti-paparazzi law that Schwarzengger signed just makes it easier to sue media outlets for PUBLISHING photographs taken illegally, ie, photos taken through a person's window while they are in their home, backyard, etc. It doesn't say anything about photos taken in a public place.
Like all of you, I think something needs to be done about this stalkarazzi. It's not right and should be illegal to harass celebrities. When Robert Pattinson was being followed by those photographers a few weeks ago, I felt sick to my stomach. They were literally holding his privacy hostage by refusing to let him go home without being followed. If that isn't against the law, it damn well should be.
Mary
oh i hope this is not true.i do fear for their safety.i agree with mary 7:12 rob was being harassed that night as well at LAX airport. maybe there needs to be a better law
If they don't get harrassed in Europe and the UK, then what in the Hell is wrong with these idiots in power in the USA??? Sorry, but I don't get the harrassment law as it applies to young movie celebrities. They don't get any protection from these snakes. They're lower than the maggots that feed on rotting flesh. Why are they allowed to harrass and harrass these young people without any mercy or consequence for their actions. I just don't get it!!! The law can put innocent people in prison but can't do anything about the idiots that put other people in jeopardy??? What's wrong with this pictue???? Sorry, but I'm really so tired of this hyposcrispy that inundates our lives every day. Please let people live in peace - no matter how 'famous' they are.
