BRADENTON, Fla. — The Bradenton Police Department is investigating a child who was hit at a school bus stop.

According to BPD, this happened just before 8:20 a.m. Wednesday morning at 15th Street East and 13th Avenue. According to authorities, a juvenile ran across 15th Street to reach a school bus stop and was “clipped by a car.”

BPD states that the driver remained on the scene following this incident. The child was alert, but was being checked out for injuries.

“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.
