The community is once again mourning after a devastating car accident Monday night, April 21st, near the Polo Club Shoppes — a spot long considered one of the worst intersections in Boca Raton.
Four lives were tragically lost in the crash at the intersection of South Military Trail and Champion Boulevard, straddling the border of Boca Raton and Delray Beach. The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) is continuing its investigation into the collision, which has shaken residents and renewed urgent calls for action about this dangerous intersection.
| “This was another horrific accident near the Polo Club Shoppes in Boca Raton that never should have happened. It’s one of the most dangerous intersections in Boca Raton. It’s good that the city is going to do something now, but they should have dealt with this years ago.” |
