‘Today’ show intruder allegedly filmed on camera before storming studio, Page Six reports

Page Six reports that a man seen on video behind Savannah Guthrie approximately 15 minutes before a studio breach appeared to be the same person later seen storming the NBC morning show’s set.

NBC’s “Today” show faced a security disruption after a man was spotted on camera behind host Savannah Guthrie shortly before he allegedly breached the show’s studio area, according to a report published Thursday by Page Six.

Page Six said footage captured the individual in the background during a live broadcast segment, describing the person as resembling the man characterized in the reporting as the “crazed stalker.” The outlet reported that the intruder was visible on video about 15 minutes before he “slipped into the studio.”

The Page Six report focused on the sequence timing, asserting that the studio’s on-camera view included the alleged intruder before the later breach. It said the later entry was part of an incident serious enough for the show’s control environment to respond and for the moment to become a subject of public attention.

In its account, Page Six connected the background sighting and the later studio intrusion, describing the individual as the same person who ultimately stormed the studio. The outlet’s framing indicates that the image evidence was viewed in connection with the overall incident rather than as an isolated backstage sighting.

Page Six also referenced the intruder in terms of broader behavior, and it included wording in its caption about the incident involving “racist” activity. Because the report does not provide specific corroborating details in the supplied record, the characterization should be treated as Page Six’s description pending confirmation in any official findings or additional reporting.

Neither the supplied Page Six description nor the backend research provided additional documentation from NBCUniversal security, law enforcement, or court filings. As a result, key details such as where and how the individual gained access, whether staff issued immediate safety orders, and the person’s identity and legal status were not established in the information provided for this write-up.

The incident nevertheless highlights the practical stakes of set security for live broadcasts, where producers and hosts operate under strict access controls and continuous camera coverage. Viewers and staff rely on backstage boundaries and rapid response procedures to prevent disruptions that can affect talent safety, staff operations, and the continuity of programming.

Why It Matters

  • Live television depends on controlled access to protect talent and staff, and studio breaches can force production interruptions and safety responses.
  • The timing described in the report raises questions about access control and monitoring when camera coverage already appeared to show an unauthorized person.
  • If the incident includes alleged hateful or threatening conduct, the matter can carry broader community and workplace safety implications.
  • Without official confirmation in the supplied record, additional verification from NBC, law enforcement, or legal proceedings is necessary before treating any motive or characterization as established.
