HERNANDO COUNTY, Fla. — The Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) is searching for a driver wanted in a fatal Hernando County hit-and-run.
The unknown vehicle was traveling northbound on Tall Pines Drive.
The victim, a 33-year-old Ridge Manor man, was riding a Huffy motorized bicycle westbound along the sidewalk running parallel with Ridge Manor Boulevard.
According to an FHP report, at the intersection, the suspect failed to stop and hit the victim.
The rider was thrown off the bike near the crash site and was killed at the scene, troopers said.
The suspect then fled the area.
The rider was later discovered by a passing motorist at about 4:30 a.m., but it was unknown what time the crash occurred, the report stated.
Anyone with information regarding the case is asked to call *FHP (*347) or Crime Stoppers at **TIPS.
“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.
