CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- They are some of West Virginia's finest, but one night of the year is a special one for a selected member of the West Virginia State Police.
This year, Corporal Fred Hammack took home the top honors as he was named Trooper of the Year. He was given the award Saturday night in downtown Charleston.
"Your peers notice that you're doing a job above and beyond I would feel that that would be one of the proudest moments in your career, and in turn, it gives their families something to be proud of," said Lonnie Carpenter, vice-president of the West Virginia Troopers Association,
Hammack works out of the Spencer detachment of the West Virginia State Police.
