Police in Spokane, Washington, have charged former Redskins quarterback Mark Rypien with fourth-degree assault/domestic violence over an incident Sunday involving his wife, Danielle.
As told by KHQ-TV, which has video of Rypien being handcuffed and placed in a police car, police responded to a Spokane intersection on Sunday evening to find Rypien standing in a grassy area in front of a bank and his wife laying in the grass. Medical personnel evaluated Danielle Rypien for about five minutes, determining that she did not need treatment, and police then spent 45 minutes speaking separately with the couple before handcuffing Mark Rypien and taking him away.
