Daniel Radcliffe has received some death threats and apparently they are being taken very seriously.  He's now been assigned former SAS bodyguards (SAS are the special forces in the British military).  His driver from the last seven years has stepped down to let someone more experienced do the job and he even has a "chase car" that will be constantly following his vehicle.
The threat comes from a Harry Potter stalker and the studio is taking all precautions to keep Daniel safe during the filming of the 6th film.

"There is real concern for Daniel's welfare. This isn't about keeping an eye out for paparazzi - they're looking for something sinister."

Yikes, how scary!
