IDAHO FALLS — Trooper Braiden Hill was honored as the Idaho State Police MVP by the Greater Idaho Falls Police Foundation Thursday afternoon.

Hill has been in law enforcement for around two years and works as a resident trooper in Island Park.

“He has eagerly accepted all of the varied tasks that come with being a resident trooper. Trooper Hill has a thirst for keeping the roadways safe through very aggressive DUI and drug investigation enforcement,” the nomination said. “Trooper Hill is regularly called out from his residence to investigate a crash or to assist a local law enforcement partner agency with a call. He never hesitates and is eager to fill a need whenever that situation arises.”

MVP awards were presented to an Idaho Falls Police officer, Bonneville County Sheriff’s deputy, and Idaho State Police trooper. A Law Enforcement Officer of the Year award was also presented, along with a Valor Award.
