CLEARWATER — A Pinellas County woman is suing a WaveRunner owner and operator, alleging negligence caused a collision on the water.

Loretta Klimaszewski-Maloy filed a complaint July 9 in Pinellas Circuit Court against Brian Rodriguez and Fly-N-High WaveRunners Inc., alleging Fly-N-High failed to comply with the Florida safety regulations.
