HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla — Troopers are searching for a motorcyclist who shot at a victim on Interstate 4 in Hillsborough County early Sunday morning.

According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, a 34-year-old St. Petersburg man driving a Honda CR-V westbound on Interstate 4 observed several motorcyclists operating erratically at about 2:28 a.m. west of Interstate 275.

The driver began to film the motorcyclists with a cell phone when one of the motorcyclists, now traveling adjacent to the victim, fired several rounds from a handgun, the report stated.

“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.
