CITRUS COUNTY, Fla. — A Missouri pedestrian was killed in Citrus County on Friday while trying to cross a highway, authorities said.
According to a Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) report, a Chevy Traverse driven by a 55-year-old Homosassa man was traveling southbound on U.S. Highway 19 at about 11:22 p.m.
South of Ivy Place, the 64-year-old Missouri pedestrian attempted to cross the highway when he entered the path of the vehicle and was hit, the report stated.
He died at the scene, FHP officials said
Neither the driver nor a 23-year-old female Homosassa passenger in the car were injured.
“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.
