Florida lieutenant governor goes to California to retrieve suspect involved in fatal Turnpike collision.

Florida Lt. Gov. Jay Collins made a trip to Stockton, California, to bring back Harjinger Singh to Florida, where Singh stands accused of causing a deadly collision in St. Lucie County on Aug. 12. Collins explained during a news briefing that Singh had fled to California after the tragic incident, revealing that he had entered the country illegally in 2018 and obtained a commercial driver's license there. Following the crash, federal officials administered a language assessment to Singh, which he failed, demonstrating only partial comprehension of verbal questions and traffic signs. Collins used the press event to express concerns over California Gov. Gavin Newsom's handling of immigration issues, urging California to prioritize the safety of American citizens over policies that support illegal immigration. The headlines also highlight a recent incident where children abducted by their mother in Riviera Beach were found safe in Georgia, an Amber Alert case that captured local attention.
