PINELLAS PARK, Fla. — The Pinellas Park Police Department arrested a St. Petersburg Police officer on August 30th for alleged aggravated assault.
St. Petersburg police said that John Antoine was involved in an argument with his domestic partner and the mother of his children outside of her Pinellas Park home. Antoine allegedly made threatening comments to her while he was in full uniform and armed.
The victim reported the incident to her employer and the Pinellas Park Police Department took over the investigation.
Antoine was arrested on one count of aggravated assault and placed on administrative leave. His weapons were seized.
Antoine was sworn in as a St. Petersburg Police officer on October 2, 2017.
“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.
