The Villages bills itself as “Florida’s Friendliest Retirement Hometown,” but things weren’t so friendly at De La Vista Golf Course recently.
A golf outing between two friends turned violent when Richard Randell, 77, allegedly punched his 84-year-old playing partner in the face, leading to an arrest on a charge of battery on a person 65 years or older, according to Sumter County deputies.
Randell later entered a plea of not guilty, according to court documents filed in late May.
