Indiana Conservation Officer Trevor Sager has been selected as the 2024 District 6 Officer of the Year.
Sager has served as a conservation officer for three years.
In addition to his normal duties as a field officer, Sager serves as a field training officer, remotely operated vehicle (ROV) search operator, passenger for hire inspector, public information officer, and background investigator for the Department of Natural Resources Division of Law Enforcement.
District 6 includes Bartholomew, Brown, Johnson, Hancock, Hendricks, Marion, Monroe, Morgan, and Shelby counties.
The district award puts Sager in the running for the Pitzer Award, which is presented to the top overall conservation officer in the state and is selected from the 10 district winners.
The Pitzer Award is named after Conservation Officer James D. Pitzer, who was fatally shot while investigating illegal hunting activity on Jan. 2, 1961, in Jay County.
