LONDON, Feb. 14 (UPI) -- An Elvis Presley impersonator faces arrest in Britain for an alleged Internet harassment campaign on a rival Elvis impersonator.
Louis Rockafella said his bookings evaporated after a Web site listed him under "amateur acts" and provided links that attacked his singing and outfits, the Mirror reported Monday.
The Web site in question also named Steve Preston as the country's top Elvis act.
Rockafella and his wife, who is also his manager, did some detective work and they allege the Web site is the work of Preston.
Rockafella's lawyers have sent Preston letters threatening to sue him for defamation and malicious falsehood. Preston has promised to remove the Web site material, but so far it appears he is in no rush.
"If undertakings are not given or the behavior recurs, he will be placed under arrest," said a police spokesman.
