Trespass orders issued for Cook Brown Road, 'Power Lines' areas in Charlotte County

CHARLOTTE COUNTY, Fla. —

The Charlotte County Sheriff's Office issued blanket trespass orders Friday for the areas around Cook Brown Road and a location called the "Power Lines."

According to the sheriff's office, the orders have been issued because there have been disturbances in the area recently, which include the use of recreational motorized vehicles, loud parties and campfires.

Deputies also mentioned a party in which someone was shot with a firearm. Gulf Coast News reported on a man who was shot after breaking up a bonfire party fight in the area, as an arrest was made in February.

Campfires are also still not allowed under the county's burn ban.

Enforcement will increase in the area starting Saturday. Anyone who does not have permission to be on the property "may be subject to arrest," the alert said.
