Woman lured to beach, beaten and robbed
PANAMA CITY BEACHIn the third such incident in two months, strangers lured a tourist to the beach at night, then beat and robbed her.Panama City Beach investigators said three female teenagers befriended Laura A. Tice, 21, of Moody, Ala., and led her to the beach between the Holiday Inn SunSpree and the Ocean Towers condo. Once there, they shoved her face in the sand, kicked and struck her and stole $50 from her left rear pants pocket, investigators said in a news release.Tice had injuries to her face and stomach but did not require medical attention, according to the release.The three girls left the area in a black Ford Mustang, which officers stopped several hours later on Front Beach Road. Information from the stop led officers to Cooks Motel, where they arrested the suspects, according to the release.Courtney Danielle Winkles, 16, of Cedartown, Ga.; Amber Nicole McDougal, 16, of Villa Rica, Ga.; and Kylie Leigh Lambert, 18, of Villa Rica, Ga., each was charged with robbery, investigators said.Women luring another woman to the beach is a new twist on an old crime.In April, two women promised sexual favors to a man and led him to the beach, where he was beaten and robbed by four men. All six of the suspects were arrested by Beach Police Department investigators.Earlier this month, a woman lured a tourist to the beach, where the tourist was beaten with a tire iron, according to an incident report from the Bay County Sheriff's Office.Maj. David Humphreys of the Panama City Beach Police Department said Beach officials have seen these types of crimes before."We used to get a lot more of it years ago before people started lighting the beach areas," Humphreys said.The criminal activity subsided when the lights went up, he said.Humphreys urged tourists and others to be aware of their surroundings and "don't go off alone with people you don't know." That's good advice for local residents, too, he said.

Grand Lagoon National fishing tournament grows larger
An already busy Bill Spann is even more so now.The Grand Lagoon National saltwater fishing tournament chairman announced the addition of two divisions to the event Aug. 20-24 in Panama City Beach. Charter boat and kayak join big game, offshore, inshore, flats, dive and party boat, with each encompassing several species of fish, including blue marlin, swordfish, wahoo, amberjack, trout, grouper and flounder.Spann also announced that red snapper has been removed as a tournament fish. New federal regulations prohibit red snapper fishing after the second week of August, he said. Spann said other eligible snapper would be included in those respective divisions."We regret that available science was unable to influence the management of the red snapper fishery," Spann said in a statement. "We look forward to helping governmental agencies develop long-term plans that hold forth the promise of enhancing the growth of the gulf's various fisheries."The tournament recognizes our responsibilities to the resources that we share and have adjusted our rules to a level beyond the requirements imposed by state or federal governments."The inclusion of two new divisions increases the entry availability for what Spann called one of the most inclusive events in the nation. His only concern, he joked, was having to learn all the rules for the eight categories in time for the tournament, which is hosted by Grand Lagoon's four principal marinas.Fishing in the charter boat division will be contested Aug 21-24, with an overall tournament champion and daily cash awards up for grabs. Anglers may compete one day or for the full five days.The boat fee is $500. The angler fee is $200 for the first day and $150 each day thereafter, and a one-time fee of $50 for junior anglers under the age of 15.Kayak, which is one of the fastest growing segments in the sport, Spann said, will be contested Aug. 23-24. The category is catch and release only, with winning fish determined by length as photographed according to tournament rules. The entry fee is $125 per angler, with optional cash awards available.

Judge cans ‘Girls Gone Wild' order
PANAMA CITYU.S. District Judge Richard Smoak dismissed a previous order calling for an explanation as to why lawyers in a "Girls Gone Wild" lawsuit apparently were not communicating with each other.The lawyers reported in recent filings that they had talked but maybe were not coming to a "meeting of the minds," according to one lawyer.Attorneys Mark Casto and Lawrence Burkhalter told Smoak in a motion that Panama City attorney Jean Marie Downing did not respond to their two attempts to contact her about a requested delay in the discovery process of a lawsuit.Casto and Burkhalter represent Brittany Pitts of Georgia, who sued "Girls Gone Wild" and Joe Francis in July, saying he got her to expose her chest for "Girls Gone Wild" cameras in 2003 when she was 16 at the time.The case is scheduled for trial in August.Smoak granted the requested delay but told Downing she needed to answer as to why she didn't respond to Casto's attempts to contact her. Downing said in her response that her legal secretary communicated with Casto by e-mail and said they didn't oppose a delay. She provided the e-mail as proof.

Paying their respects
PANAMA CITYThe thin blue line honored its fallen Thursday across the country.In Panama City, officers read the names of 16 Florida officers who died in the line of duty and issued a three-shot volley in their honor at the police department on U.S. 98."They gave their lives so that we may live in safety," said Rudie Guta, chaplain of the Panama City Police Department.Guta said the service was about paying "special tribute to the points at which that line became even thinner."Police Chief John Van Etten said his officers train and focus on safety while they do their jobs."Deadly situations come up in a matter of seconds and they're over in a matter of seconds," Van Etten said. "Safety is paramount."Van Etten called Thursday, the national recognized day to honor slain officers, the most important day of the year. He noted the 16 officers slain in Florida in 2007 was the second-highest death rate in the nation, surpassed only by Texas. None of the 16 officers was from Bay County, but Deputy Harold Michael Altman of the Jackson County Sheriff's Office and reserve Deputy Joe Bill Galloway of the Holmes County Sheriff's Office were killed while on duty last year.While the ceremony honored the fallen, it also was for the families of those who died, Guta said."Now, they are in a better place," Guta said of the fallen.Officers who gave their lives to make the world a better place were following the tradition set down by Jesus, Guta said."Whoever among you wants to be great, you must first be a servant," Guta said, reciting Mark 10:44.Florida officers who died in the line of duty in 2007:#149 Deputy Harold Michael Altman, Jackson County Sheriff's Office, Jan. 30#149 Officer Scott Eric Bell, Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, Oct. 12#149 Lt.

New library opens Friday
PANAMA CITYThe building is ready, and the books are shelved. Friday morning, the Bay County Public Library will open its doors to the public."We're really excited to be able to offer the people of Bay County a modern facility that will suit our needs as the community grows," said county spokeswoman Valerie Lovett.After more than a year of work, the $10 million project is complete. The 55,000-square-foot building on 11th Street boasts multiple reading areas, a youth room, as well an area for younger children. The new library also houses a 100-person meeting room, an area dedicated to local history, wireless Internet capability and ample behind-the-scenes storage.When people enter the facility, they will encounter a building that could swallow the former library several times over. The floor plan is open and airy; the ceilings stretch skyward. There is plenty of room for burying oneself in a good book, exploring family genealogy or simply relaxing."The library offers so much more than just books," Lovett said. "This library is going to fulfill a whole host of needs. Hopefully, it will become a gathering place for people in the county."The Bay County Library is the headquarters library for the Northwest Regional Library System, which serves Bay, Gulf and Liberty counties. The ribbon-cutting ceremony will be held at 9 a.m. Regular library hours are Mondays through Wednesdays, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Thursdays through Saturdays, 9 a.m. to 5p.m. and Sundays 1 to 5 p.m.

A place to play
PANAMA CITY BEACHAs a spring storm rolled over the west end of Panama City Beach on Thursday, 7-year-old Chase Kehl gained steam on his halfpipe. He pumped his skateboard from side to side until finding the necessary momentum to launch himself into smiling acrobatics."He made this one up on his own," Brian Kehl said, watching his son roll into a particular trick. "He came home from art class and said, ‘Dad, look, a 360-bonus.'"A former skateboarder, Brian Kehl appreciates his son's enthusiasm for the sport. He built the halfpipe that sits in the family's yard. Soon, there will be something even better.The Bay County Commission this week committed to build a skateboard park at Pete Edwards Recreation Facility at Panama City Beach. The park should be finished by mid-July."I'm really excited the county stepped up," Brian Kehl said. "It's gonna be nice; the county's doing it right."Bay County Commissioner Mike Thomas spearheaded the official effort to build the park. The commissioner does not share the Kehls' affinity for the sport but said he has come to recognize that the skaters need a designated place to gather."I had a lot of people come to me and want to do this over the years," Thomas said. "You hope it's a fad. I've got three sons; all of ‘em skateboarded. I've got a grandson that pushes one around and a granddaughter that watches him. It's not a fad, it's here."Thomas said a skate park will serve the skateboarding community while decreasing the number of incidents in which skaters make use of public and private terrain. The commissioner said it is not yet decided if the park will be free of charge or require a small fee; the decision will be based on whether the park is manned.The money for the skate park is coming from county impact fees. Recently, each commissioner was divvied out a portion of the fees and could spend it how they see fit. Thomas chose to focus on the skate park."If he had said no, it never would have happened," Brian Kehl said.Thomas said he hopes to be able to complete the project for less than $80,000. The county is aiming to save some money by doing much of the work in-house, with Brian Kehl handling the specialized aspects of the construction.The skater-turned-contractor, businessman and father is no stranger to ramp building. Flipping through an old photo album in his house, Brian Kehl shared snapshots of a Virginia teenager in various states of wheel-driven flight."This is a 9-foot ramp," he said, pointing to a photo of a large wooden halfpipe he built with friends. "We had lights, a stage where bands would play. We would skate all night. You guys ever hear of Thrasher Magazine? Our ramp was in Thrasher."The terrain planned for Pete Edwards is a little tamer. Brian Kehl said it would be ideal for beginning and intermediate riders and leave the door open for adding on more advanced aspects later."What I've tried to design with this is multiple skate areas," he said, unrolling a scroll of blueprints.The county's skatepark will include a series of launch ramps and rail slides that may be moved and arranged, depending on the circumstances. There also will be multiple halfpipes, requiring varying degrees of skill, some of which lead into one another.When Kehl's children began showing an interest in skateboarding, it reignited his interest in the sport. He put a board back under his feet, and it came back to him pretty quick. But that doesn't mean he'll be frequenting the park he's building; he's found his body doesn't absorb an injury as well as it did when he was younger."I've got a golf membership at Wild Heron," Brian Kehl said, laughing off the consequences of one slip off the skateboard. "For three months I couldn't even move my wrist."
