That Prime Rib Fight At Boca Lago Still Has Meat…
BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2025 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — In a county where some cases come and go in days, it’s notable that the criminal case against Attorney Mark Roher continues — four months after he was accused of a buffet brawl over prime rib at a Boca Lago Country Club wedding.
Roher’s case was back in court Wednesday for what was originally supposed to be a case disposition. But instead of slicing and dicing the charges over prime rib, the judge instead said it’s not yet, well, done… he moved disposition to May 22nd.
Roher, an attorney specializing in bankruptcy and operating from an office in Broward County, was attending a wedding reception at the Boca Lago Country Club on January 18th when he allegedly became irate that a girl cut in line near the prime rib station. Roher allegedly used a plate to strike a family member of the girl. As we reported exclusively following the incident, here is the police report filed by PBSO:
>> “The victim then stated that a white male standing behind him became upset that he was being cut in line and the white male who was later identified as Mark Stuart Roher walked up to him and they began arguing. The victim then stated that he was attempting to remove himself from the situation and he turned around to avoid further contact. The victim then alleged that he was hit over the head with a plate and he was shoved and while off balance the victim was grabbed by the collar by Mark who was holding a plate over his head.” <<
Roher was arrested and charged with “aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.” The prosecutor — after chewing on it for a while — ultimately dropped that to a battery charge. Still serious, but not quite as serious as aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
Mark Roher remains free as the case continues.
