Sawgrass Mills and BB&T Center

Sunrise is home to Sawgrass Mills, the largest outlet mall in Florida, and the Amerant Bank Arena (formerly BB&T Center), home of the Florida Panthers. Both venues generate significant arrest volumes, particularly during Panthers games, concerts, and holiday shopping season. Sawgrass Mills sees a high volume of retail theft arrests. Arena events produce DUI arrests on the surrounding roads. All cases process through BSO at the Fort Lauderdale jail.

Sawgrass Mills: Largest Mall in Florida

Sawgrass Mills attracts over 26 million visitors per year, making it one of the most-visited attractions in Florida. The mall and its surrounding retail complex generate a high volume of retail theft, shoplifting, and fraud arrests. BSO maintains a substation near the mall for processing before transport to the Fort Lauderdale Main Jail. During Black Friday and holiday shopping season, arrest volumes spike significantly.

Arena Events and DUI Enforcement

The Amerant Bank Arena hosts Florida Panthers NHL games, concerts, and events throughout the year. Post-event DUI enforcement along NW 136th Avenue, Sunrise Boulevard, and the Sawgrass Expressway is aggressive. BSO sets up checkpoints on arena event nights. If someone is arrested after a Panthers game or concert, they are transported to the BSO Main Jail in Fort Lauderdale for booking.
