SARASOTA, Fla. — Deputies launched a death investigation after two people were found dead outside of a Sarasota discount store.

The Sarasota County Sheriff's Office said early Tuesday morning, the two victims were found at the rear of Ollie's Bargain Outlet on Cattleman Road.

Deputies said it appears to be an isolated incident. While there is no threat to the public or an apparent suspect at large, they are actively investigating the incident and may provide more information later.

Anyone with information regarding this incident is encouraged to call the Criminal Investigation Section at 941-861-4900 or leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers by calling 941-366-TIPS(8477).

“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.
