The Boynton Beach police chief reported that officers recovered approximately 24 kilograms of cocaine washed ashore and seized as part of a joint law-enforcement action. The chief said the seizure was conducted under Operation Stone Garden in coordination with the county sheriff’s office and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

The chief also provided an update on a separate series of shootings previously discussed by local departments. He said the multi-jurisdiction incidents involved about 15 locations across neighboring cities; within Boynton Beach the department recorded four separate shooting incidents earlier in the year. The chief said arrests and enforcement actions have been coordinated with the sheriff’s office and neighboring municipalities.

The chief characterized the seizure and the shooting investigations as joint operations with multiple agencies and did not propose immediate new citywide operational changes during the agenda review. Commissioners acknowledged the updates and requested staff continue to coordinate with regional partners and to provide more detailed briefings as appropriate to protect ongoing investigations.

No motions or votes were taken. The chief used the meeting to inform the commission about interagency activity and to note that the drug seizure and shooting matters involved multiagency coordination.
