Andrew Truelove, 41, was remanded to Rikers Island without bail after violating parole; he allegedly slipped into a vestibule near NBC's Studio 1A during a live Today show and shouted a racial slur at co-host Craig Melvin, facing hate-crime charges of burglary and menacing. He has a prior record including a 2007 Virginia abduction attempt, and NBC says it is reviewing security after a security guard was fired following the incident.
