TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa Police said a homicide investigation was launched Thursday after officers found a body.
TPD said the investigation started just before 9:30 a.m. when officers were called to a report of shots fired on the 1000 block of East 26th Avenue.
Officers said when they arrived on the scene, they found an adult man with upper body trauma at the scene. The victim was taken to a local hospital where he later died from his injuries.
According to TPD, the shooting appeared to be a random incident.
“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.
