Alcohol, drugs, stripper poles: House party for Boca-area students thwarted

Nearly 300 students were set to charter three buses to a rented Palm City Airbnb until the Martin County Sheriff’s Office got tipped off.

PALM CITY — The party was over before it even started for a group of high-school students who planned to throw an alcohol- and drug-fueled bash at a Palm City Airbnb, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office said.

Deputies found the three-story rental home, on Southwest Grass Trail near Florida’s Turnpike, stocked with alcohol “comparable to any bar here in Martin County,” Martin County Lt.
