WRAL producer Randall Kerr arrested for stalking and restraining order violation
Randall Saunders Kerr, a 55-year-old Emmy-winning investigative producer for WRAL-TV in North Carolina, has been arrested on felony stalking and misdemeanor domestic violence protective order violation charges.
According to court records and police reports, the arrest occurred at the WRAL-TV lobby in Raleigh. The charges stem from allegations that Kerr harassed his former wife, longtime WRAL anchor Lynda Loveland, following their divorce, which was finalized on October 9.
Loveland filed for protection in Wake County District Court, alleging that Kerr monitored her movements, searched through her personal belongings, and tracked her via shared technology. An arrest warrant alleges that between October 13 and October 18, Kerr drove near Loveland’s residence multiple times a day.
Kerr, who has worked at the station since 2004, is currently on leave and has been banned from WRAL offices. He is being held in county jail without bond pending arraignment.
