BROOKSVILLE, Fla. — A child was taken to the hospital with serious injuries after being hit by a car while walking home from the school bus stop in Brooksville.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP), a school bus dropped the child off near Eskimo Curlew Road and Osprey Avenue around 3:40 p.m. Tuesday. The 11-year-old girl started walking along the edge of the unpaved and unmarked road edge when a passing car collided with the child.
The girl was taken to the hospital and had serious injuries, according to FHP.
This is a developing story. ABC Action News will provide updates as they become available.
“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.
