Two Miami-Dade men and one Broward man are in Monroe County jail on felony lobster trap robbing charges after Florida fish and wildlife police said they caught them in the act of poaching from commercial traps in the Keys. When Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officers tried to pull over their vessel nearshore of the small city of Layton on Tuesday, the men briefly sped up to avoid capture, adding to their criminal charges, the agency said. Enrique Airado, 67, and Luis Airado, 61, both of Cutler Bay, and Carlos Castillo, 63, of Hollywood, were booked into Monroe County jail on one felony count each of trap molesting, one felony count each of fleeing and eluding police, one felony count each of tampering with evidence and one misdemeanor count each of interfering with a police officer.
