Lance Cpl. Alonzo L. Hutto, 36, of West Columbia was fired Thursday, the day after he was charged with criminal domestic violence against his wife, Julie Hutto, 36, arrest warrants and police said.

Alonzo Hutto, a trooper since 2000, was released Friday from the Lexington County jail after posting a $15,000 bond on each charge, records show.

Hutto was charged in April with kicking and punching Robert Lee Corley Jr. of Lexington, and later pointing a gun at him in a West Columbia parking lot, arrest warrants show.

Those charges were dropped after he completed a pretrial intervention program, Public Safety spokesman Sid Gaulden said.

In the latest charges, Hutto is accused of violently shoving his wife into a van, and later grabbing her by the throat and shoving her against a wall at their home last week, warrants show.
