On Feb. 11, Gulf Breeze Police officers responded to the 100 block of Highpoint Drive in reference to a welfare check. The response led to the discovery of two individuals, both deceased, inside the residence.
This story has been updated 2/14/25: Just days ahead of the Holley Navarre Water System annual meeting and election of directors, slated for Feb. 18, two directors have filed a complaint with the board stemming from a special-called meeting held Feb. 10.
