Indianapolis – Yesterday afternoon Pendleton Trooper Tyler Painter was honored by the Indiana State Police at an awards ceremony that took place at the Indiana Government Center. Painter was honored with a Service Appreciation Award for his work in the Firearms Division last year.

In June of 2013 Painter, who was on limited duty status due to an injury, volunteered to temporarily transfer to the Firearms Division to assist with the increased amount of firearm carry permit applications the division had been receiving. Painter assisted the firearms division in getting the applications caught up and out to residents in a timely fashion.

Painter is a seven year member of the Indiana State Police and is a road trooper assigned to Henry and Wayne Counties in the Pendleton District.
