MONTOURSVILLE, Pa. --- A state trooper from central Pennsylvania is suspended without pay for his alleged role in a theft scheme.
Johnathan Buynak of Troop F in Montoursville was arrested on Wednesday.
Investigators say Buynak and a woman told another man they needed money to purchase drugs for a drug bust. That man gave them $900.
Authorities say there was never any drug bust and that Buynak gave the woman the money to pay off past debts.
Buynak is charged with theft by deception and impersonating a public servant in Lycoming County.
