A Boca Raton man was arrested Tuesday evening on suspicion of possessing marijuana, according to a report filed by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
The suspect was identified as Karri Javar Shannon, a Black male. The arrest is recorded under Report No. 565061 and was published on January 27, 2026, at 7:12 p.m. The filing agency is listed as 01-PBSO, representing the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
Authorities reported that Mr. Shannon was taken into custody on suspicion of possession of less than 20 grams of cannabis, a charge applied when an individual is found with a small amount of marijuana. The report did not provide additional details regarding the circumstances of the arrest or Mr. Shannon’s date of birth.
Law enforcement officials emphasize that an arrest reflects an allegation and does not constitute a determination of guilt. Any charges must be adjudicated through the court system, where the accused is presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
The Boca Raton Tribune will continue to monitor official records and provide updates should additional information become available.
