Miami Fort Lauderdale, FL, July 13, 2026 —
POMPANO BEACH, FL – A former sergeant with the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO), Scott Nelson Nida, was arrested for the fourth time this year on Wednesday in Pompano Beach. The arrest stems from accusations of violating a domestic violence injunction.
Details regarding the specific circumstances of the injunction violation were not immediately available. This marks the latest in a series of legal troubles for Nida, who had previously faced charges including domestic violence and vehicle theft.
According to reports, Nida had separated from the Broward Sheriff’s Office shortly before his third arrest earlier this year. Information regarding the exact date of his separation from the BSO was not provided.
The previous charges and the current arrest indicate a pattern of legal issues. The domestic violence injunction violation suggests continued alleged contact or actions prohibited by a court order intended to protect an individual from domestic abuse.
Further information regarding the timeline of these events, the specific nature of the domestic violence charges, and the outcome of previous arrests was not provided in the available summary.
