I hope this update finds you well. The summer, for the most part, has been uneventful for us at your Sheriff’s Office. For those of you returning, except for the ones I have placed a hold on at the Canadian border, please remember to let us know you returned so we don’t surprise each other! I will take you out of the database until your next trip.
As you know, Mary left us for a career as a paramedic a few counties away. Her replacement is Connor Gendreau; he made a few stops at another district and the airport before finding us.
I am still going through the interview process in selecting a new midnight deputy for us. The murder you may have heard about on the Island occurred in the waterway north of Phil Foster Park on a live aboard boat. The subject was arrested on-site with the assistance of the marine patrol. There was no danger to Palm Beach Shores residents.
The Blue Heron Bridge is about to be completed. They are way ahead of schedule and are finishing up the striping. The last two motels on the Sailfish Marina property have been torn down, and landscapers are on the property with plants and grass.
Your deputies responded to an apartment complex regarding a domestic altercation, and the investigation revealed a domestic battery had occurred. A warrant has been requested from the State Attorney’s Office.
Our night deputies’ observed a suspicious person and vehicle along Lake Drive. The interview determined there was an outstanding warrant for his arrest. During the initial search of the arrestee, the deputy pulled a bag of Fentanyl from his pants pocket. Luckily, the deputy followed procedure and wore gloves. The lab confirmed the substance was Fentanyl, and that charge was added to his warrant at booking.
The Mayor had requested an ATV from the sheriff’s Office for the use of our Turtle patrol. Sheriff Bradshaw donated one that had been used in another district, and it was delivered Thursday.
Sergeant Steve Langevin
Commander District 20 Town of Palm Beach Shores.
