Palm Beach County insurance agent accused of insurance fraud

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A western Boca Raton man is behind bars Tuesday facing some serious charges of insurance fraud.

Circuit Judge Judge Donald W. Hafele was so incensed by what he read, he increased Naser Al-Sweity's bond during his first appearance in West Palm Beach.
 
Al-Sweity, an owner/agent for Florida P&C Insurance in Boca Raton, walked into court with a bald head and blue jumper. It was his first appearance on 23 charges he is facing. The Florida Department of Finance Services Bureau of Insurance Fraud in West Palm Beach investigated.

"I'm not sure they're high enough. On the first count I'm increasing the bond to $50,000. These are very serious allegations," Hafele said.
