A man accused of stalking WNBA star and Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham has been arrested.The prosecutor’s office of Marion County, Indiana said 48-year-old Kevin Singh was taken into custody on Tuesday, June 23. He faces two felony charges of stalking and intimidation and a misdemeanor charge of harassment for allegedly sending multiple threatening and explicit messages to Cunningham via social media.Prosecutors also say Singh threatened John Ball, the vice president of security and event services for the Indiana Pacers and Fever, after Ball sent him a cease-and-desist letter.”The internet has made it easier than ever to target, harass and intimidate others. Threats of violence, whether face-to-face or behind a keyboard, will be taken seriously,” Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears said in a statement. “Coming forward is never easy, regardless of a person’s position or public profile. The victim is setting an example by speaking out. No one should have to endure harassment, intimidation or threats of violence, and every person deserves to feel safe in their workplace and throughout our community.”Prosecutors have filed a motion for a greater-than-standard bond for Singh and have also filed a stay-away order from Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Prosecutors are also requesting Singh be held without bond for seven days for violating his parole for an unrelated invasion of privacy charge.1 / 20Minnesota Lynx guard Courtney Williams (10) celebrates with guard Olivia Miles (5) after a play against the Golden State Valkyries during the fourth quarter at Chase Center on Jun 19, 2026 in San Francisco, California.(Kelley L Cox, Imagn Images)Singh’s pursuit of Cunningham allegedly began on Sept. 30, 2025 when security cameras at Gainbridge Fieldhouse captured him dropping off a package addressed to “Sophie.” It was opened by security personnel at the Fever’s home arena and inside was a Guns N’ Roses T-shirt sprayed with men’s cologne and a letter:“Dear Sophie, Thank you for a very special season (heart emoji) I never watched the WNBA (or Tik Tok) before you arrived, and hop you’re enjoying your time in Indiana, as much as fans have enjoyed ALL that you’ve brought to us and our FEVER (three heart emoji’s) The beads were blessed in HIS name by a Cardinal visiting Scottish Rite Cathedral in Indy. I’ve given them to family and close friends over the years. Your Metallica shirt gave me the idea to add GN’R to your collection; and I’ve tried everything else to get your attention (smile emoji). I hope you hit me up!
