BROOKSVILLE, Fla. – A resident of an adult living facility in Brooksville has been arrested and charged with multiple felonies after allegedly shooting at a facility bus.
The incident occurred on December 30th at approximately 4:50 PM at the Hillendale Cares facility.
According to the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office, Mckenzi Finn, 20, became angry when the facility’s bus driver informed him that he could not provide transportation to a store due to a prior commitment to another resident.
