April 4 2018, Updated 11:42 a.m. ET
Taylor McKinney was granted a temporary protection order against Ryan Edwards, and the reason behind it is terrifying. In a chilling protection order exclusively obtained by RadarOnline.com, the troubled Teen Mom OG baby daddy allegedly threatened to hurt his baby mama Maci Bookout's husband with a gun.
In the protection order obtained from Hamilton County Circuit Court, Taylor described Ryan's alleged behavior before his March 27th arrest for petition to revoke, which means breaking probation, for a past March 2017 possession of heroin arrest. Taylor filed the protection order on March 23rd.
“He called me on Tuesday, March 20th, 2018 and threatened to show up at my house and put a bullet in my head,” Taylor claimed. “The police were called and they suggested to seek an order of protection.”
Maci's husband explained how Ryan has a “history of drug abuse.” He claimed according to the documents, “He has also said he would show up at our son’s baseball game and confront us, my wife and I."
Taylor requested for the 30-year-old MTV dad to stay away from him and not to contact him. The court issued a temporary order of protection.
Earlier this week, Radar obtained Maci's restraining order request against Ryan. The two share one son together, Bentley.
“He has left voicemail messages threatening to show up at my house and take my son,” she claimed. “He has made threats to show up and hurt me if I don’t answer my phone.”
Maci also listed an incident from May 2017 claiming that Ryan "show up to my son's baseball game under the influence of heroin and got in my face, yelling and threatening to hurt me."

"I fear for my son's safety because of these threats and proof that he drives while under the influence," the mother wrote, according to the documents.
Maci also claimed that Ryan's "behavior and actions are getting worse." She wrote, "I am fearful for my three children and myself and what he may do, based on his threats."
Maci also requested that Ryan is not allowed to contact her and that he must stay away from her home and workplace. She also requested that he does not damage her home and hurt or threaten her animals.
Maci and Taylor's court hearings have been continued until May 21st.
Last season, Ryan was shown driving under the influence on the MTV reality series and days after it aired, he checked into rehab for less than 30 days. On the current season of the MTV show, Ryan and Maci are feuding over custody of Bentley.
As seen on Monday night's episode, Ryan's wife, Mackenzie, is pregnant with their first child.
