Anna Maria

Dec. 8, 900 S. Bay Blvd., Bimini Bay channel, power outage. Power was disrupted to the city when a 56-foot yacht ran aground in the channel, cutting a submerged power line. According to the report, the captain was attempting to bring the yacht to Galatis Marine for maintenance and ran into trouble because the tide was unusually low.

 

Bradenton Beach

Dec. 12, 120 Bridge St., Drift In parking lot, battery of a law enforcement officer. An officer was dispatched to the parking lot in reference to a domestic dispute in which a male suspect was allegedly beating a woman with his hands and fists. When the officer arrived on the scene, the male suspect was gone, but the officer reportedly observed a female staggering near a car. According to the report, when she was asked if she had been involved in a fight, she began yelling at the officer. She then came toward the officer and punched him in the chest. At this time, she was arrested. She reportedly remained combative until pepper spray was administered to subdue her.
