A man from The Villages was arrested Sunday after Florida state troopers say he killed someone with a golf cart.

Florida Highway Patrol says Richard Allen Keil, 58, was driving a golf cart with a passenger heading northbound on San Martino Drive during Sunday’s overnight hours.

Shortly before 1 a.m., he reportedly swerved to avoid a parked vehicle at the intersection of Santa Clara Circle. Troopers say that’s when the passenger, a 60-year-old woman from Norridge, Illinois, fell out and suffered serious injuries. She later died at the hospital.

The woman’s name was not released.

Troopers say Keil was found to be impaired. He was arrested and charged with DUI manslaughter.

He remains in the Sumter County jail. No bail has been set yet.

From tariffs to tax bills to DOGE and federal budget cuts, President Trump has issued a myriad of policies impacting the economy since taking office in January, and the markets are responding accordingly. On this week’s episode of Capitol Gains, anchor Madison Mills, Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul, and Senior Columnist Rick Newman take a look at the current state of the economy and try to understand Trump’s economic plan happening in real-time. Newman assesses the current economic landscape. “We have now seen the S&P 500 (^GSPC) stock index — it is down 4.5% since Trump took office. That is not a global phenomenon. The stock index in China, in Europe, and even in Mexico is up while our stock index is down.” “Is Trump just playing a long game here?” Newman asks. “Is he like… I know what I'm going to do in two months and stocks are going to go back up?” Werschkul agrees a long-term gain game plan from the president is a possibility, but not a guarantee. “When you talk to Trump folks about that - in the end, this will work itself out as a wash. Once we get our big tax cuts at the end of the year, that'll help balance some of this out. So if you kind of take the tough medicine now, a lot of this will work out in the long run. Whether that happens remains to be seen. But we've definitely got, as somebody put last week, a lot of veggies early on, the question is whether the dessert ever comes.” To learn more, listen to the full episode of Capitol Gains here.

And even-even better? We have some absolutely magnificent footage of the landing as it took place, which was beamed back
