Among the arrests in 2023: residents accused of drug dealing, drunk driving, sex offenses, battery, a man who allegedly shot at someone for walking their dog on a golf course, a woman who resisted arrest, and more.

We believe there are more arrests of Kings Point Delray Beach residents than residents of any other senior living community in south Palm Beach County.
Looks like there’ll be a decline in arrests this year– they’re on pace for “only” 15 arrests!
C’mon Kings Point don’t lose your “crown” to the “Bridges”.
We have over 12,000 residents here. Your ignorant post is well noted.
Better Security to be enforced!!!! I’ve seen for myself they hardly check ur ID…… AND need to hv better ways went these people buy or rent….Know their history!!!!
Anybody wanna start a betting pool for the day of the next arrest, total arrests this year, and what community will prevail in the “South Palm County Criminal Olympics – Senior Division” Title ? 😄
There are 7200 condos in KP, more than 11,000 residents. 27 arrests since January 2023 – sounds like a very low percentage to me. This Boca rag just loves to publish anything negative they can find against KP. What a joke this paper is.
I could not agree with you more. It’s an infinitesimal percentage of the total population of Kings Point.
BocaNewsNow has for some reason, a prejudice against Kings Point.
There are 14000 residents in kings point…the percentage of arrest is minimal for its size…
Kings point is larger than some towns
This so called news source is getting ridiculous with their “crime reporting”. Statistically the crime rate is lower than any community yet we rarely see stories reflecting that. Anonymous hit jobs are the norm for this rag yet they ask for our names and email addresses in order to post a comment.
Most of these arrests are renters who are not vetted by the board of infamy. Just the same bs all over again
