Crews discovered that the occupants attempted to land the plane on Pine Island Drive after it lost engine power but struck a palm tree, which was nearly severed in half.

Both of the occupants self-extricated and sustained minor injuries. Hazmat crews also handled a small fuel spill.

“You know, it might just be time we take a look if HOAs are really even necessary.
Maybe we should just do away with homeowner associations as a whole.”

South Florida lawmaker Rep. Juan Carlos Porras (R-Miami) says it may be time to do away with homeowners associations altogether, as more Floridians speak out about rising fees, costly lawsuits, and even arrests tied to HOA disputes. He said this week that he is considering filing legislation in the next session that would abolish HOAs statewide.
