Ex-girlfriend of Vikings RB Dalvin Cook files lawsuit alleging assault, emotional abuse

Dalvin Cook’s ex-girlfriend filed a lawsuit on Tuesday alleging that the Minnesota Vikings running back physically abused her and held her hostage at his home last year, according to the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Gracelyn Trimble, a Sgt. 1st Class in the U.S. Army, spoke with the Star Tribune on Tuesday from Italy and accused Cook of “giving me a concussion, leaving a scar on my face and taking me through hell.”

Trimble is seeking unspecified monetary damages in the lawsuit, which she filed in Dakota County, Minnesota and officially accuses Cook of assault, battery and false imprisonment.
