Crime Report: Palmetto Pines, Southwind Lakes, Watergate Estates

Our latest report includes some mostly minor offenses including trespassing and domestic battery, though one incident involves battery on a police officer.

Boca PD was called to a domestic dispute in East Boca. The resident wanted her boyfriend, Eric Burd, to leave. Burd refused to leave.

Burd, 22, is a resident of Palmetto Pines in West Boca. Police described him as extremely intoxicated and belligerent. After refusing police orders to leave Burd was arrested for trespassing.

He was taken to Boca Regional Hospital and while there he allegedly struck a female police officer with his knee, adding a felony battery charge to his troubles.

It appears that felony charge has been dropped by prosecutors and his case is still pending.

We see no priors for Mr. Burd. We aren’t sure, but think he went to Monarch High in Coconut Creek.

A domestic disturbance in Southwind Lakes led to the arrest of Luisa Forero Chacon (age 37).

During an argument about her not wearing her wedding ring her husband allegedly grabbed her and she bit his arm. He then called for deputies.

We see no priors for her and the prosecutor has dropped the charges.

Roger Oakes (60, Watergate Estates) was arrested for battery. He and his wife were both drunk (according to the deputy’s report) and were arguing. He allegedly pushed her to the ground during the argument. He claims he had a seizure and fell on her.

Oakes has more than 10 prior cases in the Palm Beach County courts.
