Spring Break Kicks Off with 23 Arrests OKALOOSA COUNTY, Fla.—Spring Break is officially underway and the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office Beach Unit made nearly two dozen arrests over the first weekend. Twenty-one of the 23 arrests were for underage possession of alcohol. All involved individuals between the ages of 18 and 20. Another student was arrested for possession of marijuana. A 20 year old Mississippi man who was in town was also charged with possession of marijuana, possession of alcohol, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Twenty-one of the arrests were made in the Destin area and two others were on Okaloosa Island . The OCSO says it has a zero tolerance policy towards underage drinking. “Our primary concern is keeping people safe and we encourage all our Spring Breakers to obey our laws and avoid becoming a statistic, or making decisions that earn them a trip to the Okaloosa County Jail,” said Sheriff Larry Ashley. |
