## Resource

A man sneaked into NBC studios, targeting Al Roker but confronting Craig Melvin instead—then unleashed a barrage of racial slurs before being arrested. Charges include hate crime, burglary, menacing, trespass, and harassment. No one was hurt, but both Melvin and Roker are now under a protective order. The 41-year-old suspect, Andrew Truelove, has a prior felony and faces up to 15 years if convicted; bail is set at $10K, and he’s held on Riker’s Island. His next court date: July 22.
