TAMPA, Fla. — A man was hit and killed by a train in Tampa on June 7, according to police.
The Tampa Police Department (TPD) was conducting the death investigation after the incident occurred just before 11 p.m.
Officers responded to the 300 block of West Busch Boulevard after receiving a report of a deceased person.
Officers found the man who was struck by a CSX locomotive as it traveled westbound from North Florida Avenue, according to a statement released by Tampa police.
Northbound and southbound lanes were shut down at North Florida Avenue and West Busch Boulevard due to the incident.
They have since been reopened.
The investigation is still active.
“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.
