An Indianapolis man was charged after prosecutors say he stalked Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham and later threatened a Pacers Sports & Entertainment security executive who tried to stop the alleged contact.
Kevin C. Singh, 49, was charged in Marion County with stalking, intimidation and harassment, court filings reviewed by OutKick show.

Prosecutors allege Singh stalked Cunningham between Sept. 30, 2025, and June 2, 2026, through a repeated course of harassment that caused her to feel “terrorized, frightened, intimidated or threatened.”
Singh is also accused of communicating a threat to John Ball, vice president of security and event services for Pacers Sports & Entertainment, between June 1 and June 11. Prosecutors say the alleged threat was retaliation for Ball sending Singh a cease-and-desist letter.
The probable-cause affidavit lays out a timeline that began on Sept. 30, 2025, when Singh allegedly hand-delivered a package addressed to “Sophie” at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Security cameras captured Singh walking into the arena and leaving the package with a security guard. Singh allegedly said the package was from his daughter and was intended for a player.
The package contained a Guns N’ Roses T-shirt sprayed with men’s cologne and a letter addressed to Cunningham. The letter thanked Cunningham for “a very special season” and was signed with a variation of the name tied to Singh’s X account, investigators said.
Pacers Sports & Entertainment later began monitoring an X account investigators say belonged to Singh.
Investigators say the account made multiple posts directed at Cunningham, including sexually explicit comments and references to Singh’s proximity to her.
One post included in the filing said, “You’re literally down the street from me!” Another allegedly referenced a building visible in the background of one of Cunningham’s posts and suggested her building was safe.
Lt. Darren Stonehouse of the Marion County Sheriff’s Office interviewed Cunningham on Monday.
Cunningham told investigators she first learned about Singh’s posts in February after Dana Harvey, the director of executive protection, warned her because of the nature of the posts.
Cunningham said she read some of the messages and was also told about the package delivered to Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
At first, Cunningham told investigators she thought Singh was another person posting disturbing things online.
But she said the continued posts caused her to stay home more often and have nightmares. Cunningham also told investigators she felt like she was always watching her back, did not feel safe and was fearful of Singh.
She said she has never met Singh, never responded to his social media posts and wanted the posts to stop.
Ball sent Singh a cease-and-desist letter on April 30 because of the number and nature of the posts.

The letter said Pacers Sports & Entertainment had become aware of “increasingly troublesome, inappropriate and unwanted communication” toward Cunningham. It directed Singh to stop all communication with Cunningham or any other Indiana Fever player or employee.
It also informed Singh that he was banned from Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Pacers Sports & Entertainment property and any Fever event or official team activity.
The posts continued after the letter was sent, prosecutors say.
Singh later called Ball’s office and said he understood the need to protect players but disagreed with the letter.
Ball told investigators Singh’s posts became more hostile and threatening after that conversation.
Several June posts included in the filing were directed toward Ball. One allegedly said Ball was going to see that Singh could reach out, too. Another said, “Pain is coming. I promise.”
Ball told investigators he believed Singh was threatening him with physical harm.
Ball also said Singh referenced his wife and the county where he lives, which caused him concern. He said the situation led him to alter some of his daily activities, begin carrying a firearm and contact local law enforcement for extra patrols around his home.
Prosecutors requested a bond higher than the standard amount, citing Singh’s prior convictions for stalking, intimidation and invasion of privacy. The state also said Singh was on probation in Hendricks County for two invasion-of-privacy convictions when the alleged conduct occurred.
The state requested that home detention and GPS monitoring be included as conditions of release.
A public case summary shows a magistrate found probable cause Wednesday and granted the state’s request for a greater-than-standard bond.
A Marion Superior Court staff member confirmed to OutKick/Fox News Digital that Singh is being held on a seven-day hold that began June 24. After that, he faces a $40,000 cash bond with home detention and GPS monitoring with exclusion-zone monitoring.
A court order signed June 24 also bars Singh from Gainbridge Fieldhouse until the case is resolved or the order is vacated by the court. A no-contact order was also issued.
Singh’s initial hearing is scheduled for Thursday morning, June 25. The public case summary did not list a defense attorney for Singh as of Wednesday afternoon.
The allegations against Singh add to recent stalking cases involving high-profile women’s basketball players who now play in the WNBA.
Michael Lewis, a Texas man, was sentenced last year to 2 1/2 years in prison after pleading guilty to stalking and harassing Fever star Caitlin Clark. Authorities said Lewis sent Clark threatening and sexually explicit messages before he was arrested in Indianapolis.

Paige Bueckers, now a Dallas Wings guard, was also the target of a stalking case before entering the WNBA. Robert Cole Parmalee pleaded guilty in Connecticut to second-degree stalking after he was accused of harassing and threatening Bueckers while she played at UConn.
Parmalee received a one-year suspended sentence and three years of probation. He was barred from being around the UConn team and WNBA facilities.
OutKick reached out to Pacers Sports & Entertainment, the Indiana Fever and Gainbridge Fieldhouse for comment, but did not receive a response by publication.
