Sun-soaked Boca Bash revelers meet badge blitz as cops flood wild floating party scene

The party, which is held annually on the last Sunday of April, is a ticket-free event hosted on Lake Boca Raton, located along the Sunshine State's southeastern coast. 

While the bash attracts thousands of rowdy revelers, this year's party saw a significant law enforcement presence up and down the shores after previous events led to numerous arrests. 

Another local resident, Taylor Thomas, told the outlet that two undercover cops were there.

The City of Boca Raton has no official involvement regarding the sanctioning of the party, a spokesperson confirmed to Fox News Digital. 

Additionally, preliminary information indicates FWC officers made three arrests over the weekend, two for boating under the influence and one for battery, a spokesperson confirmed to Fox News Digital. Authorities also responded to six boating collisions that did not result in any serious injuries. 

In 2018, 32-year-old Francis Roselin, of West Palm Beach, drowned while enjoying festivities on the water. 

Roselin's body was later discovered by a swimmer at the bottom of the Intracoastal Waterway, with the Boca Raton Police Department determining he died by drowning.

Roselin's girlfriend, Tamekia Rich, filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the City of Boca Raton, alleging officials had acted negligently by failing to provide adequate supervision of the water and failing to control the crowd. 

However, the city rebutted the allegations, saying that Boca Bash was an unsanctioned event and therefore not hosted by officials.

Video showed the two teens, 15 and 16, speeding away from the event as a trail of garbage was left in their wake.

The Boca Bash's Facebook page condemned the incident, writing they were "angered and disturbed by these actions." 

"Once the video was posted, we quickly got to work with the community to discover who the owner of the boat was and who was on the vessel in this particular instance committing an egregious act," they wrote.

In a statement to the Palm Beach Post, one of the boy's parents issued a statement through a spokesperson apologizing for their son's actions.
