Pennsylvania State Police Troop C holds memorial service for fallen troopers
PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. (WTAJ) — Pennsylvania State Police Troop C held a memorial service to honor the 104 fallen troopers of the department as well as the four that were assigned to Troop C. Since the department's founding in 1905, more than 100 officers have been killed in the line of duty while protecting citizens with four being from Troop C. This includes Private John Henry, Private Francis Zehringer, Corporal Joseph Fulton, and Trooper Monty Mitchell. 'Privates Henry and Zehringer, the first two members to make the ultimate sacrifice on September 2nd, 1906,' Colonel Christopher L. Paris, Commissioner of The Pennsylvania State Police, said. While the first troopers were killed in 1906 while attempting to arrest heavily armed Black Hand Society fugitives, over 100 years later, keeping their memory alive today and in the future is key. 'Forgetting would be the greatest dishonor we can show to their legacy, instead, we choose to remember,' Major William A. Maitland said. 'To give the final full measure of devotion means a great deal, and it's altogether fitting that within our organizational culture, we stop and we pay homage, and we remember those that have come before us and made the ultimate sacrifice,' Paris said.

'To put it out to the public to know and remember that we're here, we've given our lives to the Commonwealth, to make sure that everyone's safe. We have to pay tribute to those people who have given their lives,' Community Services Officer Vaughn Norbert said. While it's important to not forget the fallen, it's also important to use lessons learned for the future of the department. 'We carry the legacy forward of our core mission to seek justice, preserve peace, and improve the quality of life for all,' Paris said. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Stafford man faces strangulation charges following disturbance in Willington
WILLINGTON — A man from Stafford is facing multiple charges following a disturbance that took place earlier this week. Troopers from Troop C-Tolland responded to a business on Ruby Road in Willington for a report of an active disturbance early Tuesday morning. When the Troopers arrived at the scene, they discovered that a male involved had left and was likely returning to his home in Stafford. One Trooper proceeded to the residence to wait for the male, who was later identified as Korey Barton, 22. Not long after, a gray Honda CRV was seen coming into the residence's driveway and matched the description of Barton, who was involved in the disturbance. According to state police, Barton said he had engaged in a verbal argument with a female but denied any physical contact. Barton claimed he left and got a ride home when the argument escalated. At the same time, other troopers spoke with the female involved, who described having a verbal argument with Barton. According to the female, Barton grabbed her by the shoulders and forcefully threw her to the ground. She then explained that Barton began to strangle her, making it difficult to breathe. After a brief struggle, Barton let her go, and she could grab her things and run away. During the investigation, troopers observed injuries on the victim that were consistent with her description of the incident. Barton was then arrested and transported to Troop C, where he was charged with assault in the third degree, strangulation in the third degree, unlawful restraint in the second degree, disorderly conduct, and violation of a protective order. Barton was held on a $35,000 bond and was scheduled for arraignment at Rockville Superior Court on March 4.
