Bail Bonds in Aventura, Florida

Aventura PD at the County Line

Aventura has its own police department (APD) serving this upscale northeast Miami-Dade city. Aventura sits directly on the Miami-Dade/Broward county line, bordering Hallandale Beach. All arrests transport to TGK for booking. APD operates from 19200 W. Country Club Drive.

Aventura Mall: One of Florida's Largest

Aventura Mall is one of the largest shopping centers in the United States, generating a high volume of retail theft, fraud, and DUI arrests. Mall security works closely with APD. The mall's luxury retail stores attract organized retail crime that APD investigates with dedicated detectives. All Aventura cases are heard in the 11th Circuit. For TGK details, see our Miami page.

Aventura Mall Security Operations

Aventura Mall employs over 100 security officers and coordinates closely with APD through a joint operations center. The mall's security cameras feed directly to APD's dispatch center. Organized retail crime rings targeting luxury stores like Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's, and specialty boutiques are a recurring enforcement priority. Arrests involving high-value merchandise often result in felony grand theft charges rather than misdemeanor shoplifting.

County Line Complications

Aventura's northern border is the Broward-Miami-Dade county line. NE 213th Street is roughly the dividing point. An arrest one block north in Hallandale Beach goes to BSO Main Jail in Fort Lauderdale (Broward). An arrest in Aventura goes to TGK (Miami-Dade). Two completely different jails, circuits, and bail processes. If you are unsure which county, check the arresting agency on the arrest report.
