CHARLIE KIRK SIGN

LAKE COUNTY, Fla. — Lake County, Florida, has officially named a highway after Charlie Kirk, becoming the first local government in the nation to do so.

Lake County Commissioners voted 5-0 last month to rename a section of Wellness Way from U.S. 27 to the Orange County line Charlie Kirk Memorial Highway, according to Commissioner Anthony Sabatini.

The roadway naming was done shortly after Kirk was shot to death in Utah.
