NEW PORT RICHEY -- A Ridgewood High School teacher posted $1,000 bail to get out of the county jail after deputies arrested him and charged him with violating a domestic violence injunction.

Troy Cornwell, 29, of 10109 Landmark Drive, Hudson, went to the Pasco County Sheriff's Office on Friday. Deputies said that on Feb. 10, he asked his wife if she was "ready to forget those silly injunctions" while at a youth soccer game. The January order banned Cornwell from talking to his wife, authorities said.

Deputies also said Cornwell had contact with his wife through their son, which was also prohibited.

Cornwell denied trying to contact his wife or speaking to her at the soccer game, according to an affidavit.

He was charged with two counts of violating a domestic violence injunction and was released on Saturday.
