INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – An Indiana man was charged Wednesday on accusations he stalked WNBA player Sophie Cunningham and sent her threatening and explicit messages on social media.<\/p>\n
Kevin Singh, 48, faces felony charges for stalking and intimidation, as well as a misdemeanor harassment charge. He was arrested Tuesday, according to the Marion County Prosecutor\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n
Cunningham, a player with the Indiana Fever, told investigators she had been staying at home more and having nightmares because of Singh\u2019s continued messages, according to the affidavit. She was first made aware of Singh\u2019s alleged online conduct in February, she said.<\/p>\n
Singh\u2019s online behavior escalated that month and his conduct \u201cbecame increasingly threatening after he was contacted by team security,\u201d the Marion County Prosecutor\u2019s Office said in a news release.<\/p>\n
According to an affidavit, Singh allegedly sent numerous messages \u2014 including explicit messages \u2014 on the social media platform X in April. One of the messages featured the text, \u201cYou\u2019re literally down the street from me!\u201d After Cunnigham\u2019s team sent Singh a cease-and-desist letter on April 30, Singh sent more messages on X, making explicit and threatening comments, according to the affidavit.<\/p>\n
In September 2025, Singh hand-delivered a package addressed to \u201cSophie\u201d at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indiana Fever\u2019s home arena, containing a letter and a Guns N\u2019 Roses T-shirt sprayed with men\u2019s cologne, according the affidavit.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe 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,\u201d Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears said in a statement. \u201cComing forward is never easy, regardless of a person\u2019s position or public profile. The victim is setting an example by speaking out.\u201d<\/p>\n
A phone call to a number listed for Singh wasn\u2019t answered. It wasn\u2019t clear if he had an attorney yet.<\/p>\n
Singh is currently on probation in Hendricks County, Indiana, after he pleaded guilty in July 2025 to two felony counts of invasion of privacy, the Marion County Prosecutor\u2019s Office said.<\/p>\n
The incident comes after Cunningham\u2019s teammate, WNBA star Caitlin Clark, was the victim of stalking and harassing by a different man from Texas who was sentenced last year to 2 1\/2 years in prison. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
