Several?????? there are at least 30, maybe 50 if you take in Lady Lake and Summerfield. I review the list several times yearly. I have seven within two miles of my home.

Hey Warren
You must be from the planet called TACTLESS. Absolutely no reason to respond like that.
Take it slow cause life is getting shorter.

Yes I am. I read about crime in the daily sun all the time. They do not report rumors, but they do report what the police and fire department verify as fact.

Yes, the Villages is very safe but things can and do happen here too.
This link is of a man arrested in that very childrens park. It happened in August.

I read the article. How distressing! You can't just get away from it!

Thank you for this bit of news. One of the first things I noticed a few years back was the sex offenders living in The Villages......if you read it, most of them go after, or "went after" young girls.......not retired middle aged or elderly women.

Having a beautiful 18 year old grand daughter who would indeed be visiting us, plus a lovely 8 year old grand daughter , as well as two "baby" grand daughters.........I would be concerned that these sexual predators are "out and about". The babies and 8 year old wouldn't be out "alone" but the 18 year old might be out jogging, etc .
Not to forget our 11 year old grandson.........some of these perverts don't care at all.......

I had most recently pointed out to my husband the playground area in question as a nice location (any of the nearby villages) to purchase a home.......as the Lake Sumter Landing area was my all time favorite.....it's all nice, but I just liked it there.....or Virginia Trace area, Village of Caroline, etc., Creekside Landing area.......or right around Lake Sumter Landing.

Again, I for one.......do appreciate your re-posting that link......
Thank you. Concerned grandparents have a need to know.

Anyone know what they eventually found in that pond??????????
Thanks in advance.

It was in the Daily Sun today. They found a tractor that had been stolen from the Rainey golf course. Not sure it was in the pond though as they were trying to get fingerprints off of it.

Thanks for the update, zcaveman. I usually do not get to the newspaper until after the TOTV morning jolt.

Tractor stolen and driven to Lake Sumter square area in the middle of the night.

Spring break time of the year.

WHO could have done it and why?
