Naples Beach Fight Ends in Stabbing and Felony Charges

Author Budman

A Naples beach had some serious drama this past Sunday. Of course, whenever you go to a Naples beach, you want to relax and enjoy the sun. You certainly don’t want to get stabbed. Or be the one doing the stabbing.

According to the Naples Police Department, that’s what happened at the 9th Avenue South Beach End around 6:00 pm on Sunday. The beach was packed with people enjoying their weekend when, suddenly, the police get a call from Yadir Enriquez, who’s in a panic because a guy named Jeffrey Treffy is allegedly harassing his daughters, aged 14, 17, and 18.

A Naples father and an aggressor both face felony charges after a violent confrontation at Naples Beach where the father stabbed the man to protect his daughters.

Jeffrey Treffy Arrested for: Misdemeanor Battery (Elevated to felony due to prior battery convictions).

What started as a verbal spat turned into an all-out Naples beach brawl. Enriquez and Treffy ended up fighting, and in the heat of the moment, Enriquez stabbed Treffy to protect his kids. According to an eyewitness, Treffy went after Enriquez three times and even got physical before he got stabbed.

Naples Beach Brawl:

When the police showed up and dug into what happened, they found out Treffy wasn’t just an innocent beach goer. They charged him with misdemeanor battery for attacking Enriquez. But here’s where it gets crazy… Treffy has two prior battery convictions, so his charge got bumped up to a felony.

Enriquez isn’t off the hook either. The detectives slapped him with a felony aggravated battery with a deadly weapon charge for the Naples beach stabbing. Oops. Well, I can’t say I blame him for wanting to protect his daughter. Ask any father if they would do the same. Never mess with a dad’s daughters. You’ll find out that dad WILL stab.

So, be careful out there. Sometimes, even being someplace as beautiful as on a Naples Beach, isn’t immune to drama. It’s not always just about sunbathing and building sandcastles. Sometimes, things get crazy and someone ends up getting stabbed. Florida, right?

15 Florida Beaches Where Alcohol Is Legal To Drink

I fondly remember the days of drinking on Fort Myers Beach. It wasn’t really legal, but we did it anyway. Going to 7-11 and getting a giant Big Gulp cup and then making a mixed drink to sip on the beach. It was so common that every Spring Breaker outside the Lani Kai was carrying a Big Gulp cup. I’m pretty sure the cops knew. Florida beaches and alcohol have always gone together.

And if you’re going to drink on Fort Myers Beach, you better hide it. The Town Of Fort Myers Beach has this posted “Any person convicted of violation of Section 5 of this Ordinance may be punished by a fine not to exceed $500.00 or by imprisonment in the County jail for a period not to exceed 60 days, or both.” 60 days in jail for a Mich Ultra? Seems harsh.

The grown up version is to make a drink in a giant Yeti cup. The ice lasts so much longer. That’s how I do my summertime vodka cranberry down on Bonita Beach. Even though it’s not actually legal to do so. There used to be a sign that says “no alcohol”, but the Hurricane Ian destroyed it.

One thing to remember with alcohol on Florida beaches. It’s really never ok to bring glass. Even if no one says don’t bring glass – don’t bring glass. If you break a bottle you’ll never get all the pieces and then someone will step on it.

And it’s hot here. Don’t forget to alternate between booze and bottled water or you’ll be hurting. That dehydration headache is a killer.

  • Perdido Key

    Perdido Key is on the Panhandle, at the Florida – Alabama border. The local sheriff breaks down the rules:

    • There is absolutely NO GLASS allowed on any of the beaches.
    • Alcohol may be consumed on sandy portions of the beaches only. This applies both Soundside and Gulfside. It must not be in a glass container.

  • Pensacola Beach

    Pensacola Beach is in the same county as Perdido Key, so the same rules apply. Pensacola Beach  does have an alcohol free “family zone” west of the pier.

    It’s ok to drink on private lots and county roads in the middle of the island, but it’s illegal in the State Park area.

  • Panama City Beach

    The PCB has a Spring Break law where no alcohol is allowed on the beach during the month of March. Also, no metal shovels are allowed on the beach, and digging holes deeper than two feet is prohibited. I’m interested in hearing whatever story caused that law. So it’s legal for 11 months out of the year.

    I see a lot of conflicting information on this one. Some sites say it’s ok to drink on the beach. Others say it’s not. I know you can’t drink at the pier. You can drink on Marco Island beaches. I know people do drink on Naples Beach, but I don’t know if it’s really legal.
