9 Arrests: Larceny, Burglary, Grand Theft and More

Geoffrey Anderson (above left, 29) was arrested Saturday for larceny/grand theft and also some kind of attempt or conspiracy count. His reported address is just south of Yamato between 441 and Lyons. He has not been released yet, with bond set at a total of $11,000.
Per the Palm Beach Post, Anderson was arrested along with Michael Patruno (center, 31) of the Indian Head subdivision in Loggers’ Run. Patruno faces two additional counts of “resisting an officer with violence,” which may explain the facial injuries shown in the mugshot.
Anderson is a graduate of Pope John Paul II High off Military Trail. Court records show a lengthy history of arrests dating back to 2003. In 2008 that caught up to him and he apparently did about five years in state prison. Since being released from that stint this is his third felony arrest.
Patruno is an Olympic Heights graduate, and is friends with at least a couple other recent arrestees who’ve appeared on our pages. He has a smaller set of cases, mostly drug related, over a longer period dating back to 2001. Patruno also remains in the main detention center pending $3000 bail. Allegedly the two were trying to steal televisions from the Target on 441 in West Boca Square.
Andres Garcia (right, 29) whose reported address is just south of Loggers’ Run Park, was arrested Saturday in Boynton Beach for a larceny charge and for obstructing an officer without violence. The latter charge is often dubious in our experience. Mr. Garcia may have studied in the past at Palm Beach State and FAU. He was released yesterday on bond.

Andrew Tarr (above left, 27) of Boca Dunes was arrested Sunday morning on two counts: larceny/grand theft and grand theft of a motor vehicle. He remains in jail on $6000 bond. Tarr appears to be from Coconut Creek, and he has had several cases in the Broward courts. Several were felonies and a couple of those were just last year.
Byron Drumm (center, 21) of Boca Isles South was arrested late Monday by Boca PD for battery on a person over 65 years old. He appears to be a private security worker as you can see from the photo.
Drumm has had several cases in the county court system over the past 2 years, mostly traffic related. From Yonkers, he has music in his blood and now he’ll have to face the music.
The details of this incident are strangely missing from the Boca PD’s blotter.
Scott Beare (on the far right of the three mugshots, 29) was arrested for DUI late last night or early this morning and released shortly thereafter. His reported address is in Boca Isles (North). Beare has had several cases in Palm Beach County, mostly traffic related. He also had felony drug charges in Orange County back in 2008 and got socked with a stunning $50K fine on that. His appeal on that was denied.

On the tail end of our report we have three minor bits. James South (left, 22) was arrested Monday on a “booked-recommit”. He was previously arrested on marijuana charges on the 5th. He was released again on Tuesday.
Kenneth Mack (center), who was previously arrested in February, was arrested again yesterday for failure to appear. He has not yet been released.
And Ana Anderson (right, 59) of the Lakes at Boca Rio was arrested yesterday for driving on a suspended or revoked license. She was released a few hours later.
