Suspects face 50 years after Martin County drug bust, high-speed chase
MARTIN COUNTY, Fla. (CBS12) — A routine traffic stop in Martin County escalated into a pursuit that resulted in deputies discovering fentanyl, methamphetamine, MDMA, cocaine, and a stash of stolen credit cards, leading to the arrest of three individuals, all in their twenties.
“This was a big drug operation,” Martin Co. Sheriff William Snyder said. “We haven’t seen this much methamphetamine in this county in recent memory. They had 720 doses of fentanyl, about 8,000 doses of methamphetamine. So, you add those up, you have almost 9,000 potential overdoses here in Martin County, and we have every reason to believe that narcotics was headed to our streets.”

Oldest home in Boynton Beach ‘Andrew’s House’ scheduled for demolition
BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. (CBS12) — The oldest house in Boynton Beach, the Andrew’s House, is scheduled for demolition on Monday, marking the end of an era for the historic property.
According to the Boynton Beach Historical Society, the frame vernacular home was built in 1907 by Dutch pioneer Bert Kapp and stood for years as a residential home and eventually preserved and restored to be used as a museum before it closed in 2011.
The Andrews House has been a part of Boynton Beach’s landscape for more than a century. Less than two decades ago, the home underwent a comprehensive renovation, restoring it to its former glory and updating it for modern use. Despite these efforts, the property’s fate was sealed amid shifting priorities and development pressures, as explained by Author and Palm Beach County Historian Ginger Pederson. Ph.D.
