    Pa. Game Commission to end Deputy Game Warden program

    The Pennsylvania Game Commission is ending its Deputy Game Warden program on September 1, affecting approximately 140 wardens across the state. These part-time or volunteer workers assist with law enforcement patrols and wildlife control. The decision stems from a goal of establishing a full-time professional workforce and follows a ruling by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court regarding warrantless searches in "open fields."
