Lakeland, FL – The Polk County Sheriff’s Office has apprehended a man for soliciting an undercover detective during an operation targeting lewd activity at local parks. This operation was initiated in response to numerous complaints from concerned citizens.
On July 25, 2024, at approximately 9:25 AM, a PCSO undercover detective was approached by 67-year-old Pablo Coronado at Saddle Creek Park in Lakeland. During a brief conversation, Coronado made unsolicited physical contact with the detective and expressed his willingness to engage in sexual acts. Coronado was arrested on the spot without incident.
"This is a family park, a place where parents bring their children to make pleasant memories. They don't want their children witnessing behavior like this. That's why we do these undercover operations at various parks across the county. We want our community to be a safe place for parents to raise their children," stated Sheriff Grady Judd.
Upon his arrest, Coronado expressed remorse and admitted he had come to the park intending to commit lewd acts. As a result, he was issued a 10-year trespass warning for all Polk County Parks.
Coronado has been charged with offering/agreeing to commit a lewd act (Misdemeanor 2) and simple battery (Misdemeanor 1). He was transported to the Sheriff's Processing Center without incident.
