‘Today’ co-anchor Craig Melvin was targeted after an intruder reportedly rushed past security and approached Craig near his dressing room. This disorderly individual allegedly ‘lunged at him while yelling a racial slur’ according to NYPD. ET was told no one was hurt and police are continuing to investigate the case. Craig was noticeably absent from the ‘Today’ desk and Al Roker and Dylan Dreyer were forced to adjust to the absence live on air. While Craig rejoined the broadcast later on, the incident was not addressed.
