SARASOTA, Fla. (WFLA) — The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has filed criminal charges with the Sarasota County State Attorney's Office regarding a 2025 jetski crash that killed a man. On June 15, 2025, the Sarasota Police Department and FWC responded to Lido Key after two personal watercrafts carrying two people each collided head-on. According to FWC, all four passengers were ejected into the water before being assisted to shore by nearby citizens. All four individuals involved were injured in the collision, FWC reported, with the operator and passenger of the first vehicle sustaining minor injuries. The operator and passenger of the second vessel were taken to an area hospital for treatment. Two days later, on June 17, 20-year-old Luis A. Guevara Aponte died due to his injuries. In February, the FWC filed charges with the Sarasota County State Attorney's Office in which 21-year-old Jesus Palacious was accused of violating a navigation rule resulting in the accident. Salvador Nalili, 44, who rented out the vehicle involved, was also charged with multiple livery violations, including operating a livery without a valid permit.
