Trooper suspended in alleged assault on trooper fiance

CARLISLE (AP) — Pennsylvania State Police have suspended a trooper charged with assaulting her fiance, who is also a state trooper.

State police say 26-year-old Rhiannon Trate was suspended without pay following her arrest Sept. 13.

WPMT-TV reports that police responded the Carlisle home Trate shares with her fiance and found the man standing outside with injuries to his face and hands. The man told authorities the two were arguing and the fight had gotten “out of control.”

Trate works for the Chambersburg barracks, and her fiance works for the Carlisle barracks.

Trate’s attorney tells WHTM-TV that he and the Cumberland County district attorney’s office are working toward resolving the matter.
