Charges are “imminent” against teenagers who threw a heap of trash from a boat during the spring break-like event<\/a> off the coast of Boca Raton, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) said.<\/p>\n

The FWC has been the lead investigative agency since a viral YouTube video showed two teenagers dumping garbage into the Atlantic Ocean during the Boca Bash on Sunday, and are working with the Palm Beach County State Attorney’s Office<\/a>, a spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

One person on the boat apologized, while a classmate brushed it off with a flippant response when Local 10<\/a> asked him about the incident.<\/p>\n

“Trash happens everywhere, all over the world,” the unnamed classmate told the news outlet. “We are terrorizing 15-year-old kids \u2018cause of trash. Yes, I know they are dumb, but at the same time, we all (have) to realize that Florida is filled with trash.”<\/p>\n

Another teenager, who was one of about a dozen people on the boat, said he was in the front and didn’t see what was happening behind him, Local 10 reported, but he “completely disagree(d)” with their actions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“That shouldn\u2019t have been the choice he made, but it\u2019s what happened,” he said. “I do feel a little remorse for him, but I feel like he deserves whatever happens because he made a really bad decision.”<\/p>\n

During Wednesday’s commission meeting, FWC Col. Brian Smith said the FWC wanted “to send a message” that the state won’t tolerate this behavior, according to The Palm Beach Post<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n

He wanted each person involved to do at least 500 hours of community service, according to the local newspaper.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Florida’s litter law has a wide array of potential punishments that include penalties, fines and jail time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As of Friday morning, a final decision hasn’t been made, and the suspects’ names haven’t been released.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Palm Beach County State Attorney’s Office didn’t immediately return Fox News Digital’s request for comment, or update on the case.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The incident itself was captured on video by YouTuber Wavy Boats LLC.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The group of teenagers sped into the Atlantic Ocean from Lake Boca, through south Florida’s <\/u><\/a>iconic Boca Raton Inlet, and chucked bins of empty bottles and garbage into the Atlantic Ocean, leaving a trail of trash behind, the video shows.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Drone footage from the front of the boat shows the teenagers laughing and waving.<\/p>\n

“This has become a worldwide story,” FWC Chairman Rodney Barreto said during Wednesday’s commission meeting, according to The Palm Beach Post<\/u><\/a>. “Over the weekend, my phone blew up. Hopefully, it will be a huge teaching moment for all of them.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
