Today Show intruder prompts protective orders for Melvin and Roker
Craig Melvin and Al Roker have protective orders against Andrew Truelove after he allegedly breached the Today show studio, confronted Melvin with a racial slur, and faced hate-crime charges including burglary and menacing with a hate-crime designation; bail was set at $10,000 as he awaits further court dates. NBC said a security guard was fired over the incident, and Melvin and Roker returned to air to reassure viewers that everyone is safe.
