The Bal Harbour Police Department was notified by Miami -Dade Police Communications of a

officers arrived, the owner/operator of the capsized vessel had swam ashore. The owner of the
vessel told the officers two other passengers were still in the water holding onto the capsized
vessel. Bal Harbour officers immediately notified the surrounding law enforcement marine units,
Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission officers (FWC), the United States Coast Guard, and the
Miami -Dade Police Aviation Unit which began a coordinated search for the two passengers. After
an extensive search the remaining two occupants of the capsized vessel were rescued and

Several months ago Florida Wildlife Commission (FWC) issued a flyer containing information on
two subjects who are known for the illegal poaching of snook. The flyer contained the information

near the north lot and suspected the wanted poachers were fishing on the jetty. FWC was
contacted and they immediately responded establishing a surveillance of the individuals. Once
the vehicle became occupied FWC conducted a traffic stop with the assistance of a Bal Harbour
police officer. The subsequent FWC investigation resulted in the arrest of both of the wanted
subjects. The vehicle was removed from the scene and impounded.
