MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — An Arkansas driver has been sentenced for trading a tractor-trailer filled with lunch meat for crack cocaine.

According to the Shelby County District Attorney's Office, 45-year-old Larry Bowen was sentenced to one year of in-patient drug treatment and six years of probation. The Mabelvale man also was ordered to pay $18,500 in restitution.

Bowen had been hired to deliver more than $50,000 worth of lunch meat in Alabama and Florida. When the meat was not delivered, officers found Bowen and the truck at a Memphis service station. The trailer was in a nearby storage facility with about a third of the lunch meat missing.

Bowen told police he stopped at the service station three days earlier and “inadvertently” traded the rig to two men who offered him crack cocaine.

PANAMA CITY — A Panama City Beach man accused of running over two foreign exchange students while he was driving drunk has been sentenced to nearly five years in prison and about $55,000 in restitution, according to court records.

Rodolfo Santiago Espanola, 47, was arrested in June of last year on charges of DUI with serious injury, failure to immediately report a crash and leaving the scene of a crash with injuries after officers discovered two bicyclists had been hit at about 11:15 p.m. while riding along Front Beach Road, according to Florida Highway Patrol reports.

Officials said Espanola’s blood alcohol content was 0.221 at the time, nearly three times the legal limit of 0.08.

Last week, Espanola pleaded no contest to the charges and was sentenced to 55 months in prison. He also was ordered to repay about $55,000 in restitution for medical treatment, court records indicated.

The bicyclists were Chinese foreign exchange students visiting Panama City Beach. One of the girls suffered critical head injuries and was treated at a local hospital. The other was hospitalized in stable condition, troopers reported. During Espanola’s sentence hearing, prosecutors said both of the girls were treated and returned home.

The crash happened June 15 on Front Beach Road near Moylan Road. Espanola, driving a 2001 Chrysler Sebring, struck the two bicyclists, sending them both to the hospital, FHP reported. Officers arrested him at about 2 a.m.

PANAMA CITY BEACH — One of Bay County’s few gateways to the Beach will be getting a touch-up in the coming years, and state officials Tuesday night heard feedback for the plans.

Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) officials hosted a public hearing Tuesday concerning improvements to the intersection of State 79 and Back Beach Road (U.S. 98). Dominating the meeting was a formal presentation of plans for the bustling intersection, which is slated for reconstruction in summer 2016.

A little more than a dozen citizens appeared for the introductory public hearing, and the reception was mostly positive, according to FDOT officials.

The most significant two improvements to the intersection would regard east-bound traffic along Back Beach Road. During high-volume seasons, traffic can accumulate for massive stretches leading up to its intersection with State 79.

Where a left-turn lane now approaches the intersection, officials discussed widening and an extension of the existing turn lane. This improvement will require a modification to the median access from U.S. 98 at Armstrong Circle, FDOT officials said.

“After a traffic study, we noticed that traffic in the turn lane spilled over onto the highway during peak season, creating a safety issue,” said Tim Barnard, project manager with the FDOT. “Those safety concerns are what spurred the project.”

The right-turn lane also is planned to undergo a transformation into an additional through-lane, and a new eastbound right-turn lane adjacent to the existing turn lane is scheduled to be constructed.

One resident at the meeting expressed concern the project would hamper residents of Armstrong Circle from turning east across Back Beach Road with the extended left-turn lane.

The proposed improvements to State 79 include shifting the southbound through-lane to the west and striping the pavement to add a left-turn lane onto U.S. 98 to alleviate congestion during peak seasons.

Other improvements include milling and resurfacing the existing lanes. FDOT also plans to perform minor drainage improvements, sidewalk construction, signage and traffic signal upgrades. The project will be constructed within the FDOT right of way. FDOT officials anticipate accepting bids for construction in summer 2016.

TALLAHASSEE (AP) — Traffic ticket quotas for law enforcement agencies would be illegal under a bill passed by the Florida Legislature.

The House unanimously passed the so-called “Waldo Bill” (SB 264) on Wednesday and sent it to the desk of Gov. Rick Scott. The Senate had previously approved the bill.

The bill's nickname comes from the city of Waldo on heavily travelled U.S. 301, once considered one of the nation's worst speed traps. In 2014, Waldo police officers disclosed a quota system and it was reported that tickets accounted for nearly half of the city's revenue. The police force has since been disbanded.

The bill also requires a city or county to report to state officials if traffic ticket revenue exceeds a third of the cost of operating its law enforcement agency.

PANAMA CITY — A local homeless man has been arrested after allegedly threatening another homeless man with a knife until he performed sexual acts upon him, according to a Panama City Police Department report.

David Paul Lowe, 52, has been charged with one count of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count aggravated sexual battery, PCPD reported.

Police said Lowe, a transient, demanded Monday that another male transient perform oral sexual acts upon him, but the other man refused. Turned down, Lowe struck the man on his face and body and choked him until he lost consciousness, officers said.

When the victim regained consciousness, Lowe threatened to harm the victim with a knife and forced the victim to perform sexual acts upon him, police said. Lowe was arrested on aggravated assault and sexual battery charges and taken to Bay County Jail to await first appearance.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) — A Michigan woman has been sentenced to three to seven years in prison for opening fire at a McDonald’s restaurant after workers twice failed to put bacon on her burgers.

Authorities say 30-year-old Shaneka Torres became angry in February 2014 when the first burger she ordered at the restaurant’s drive-up station was missing bacon. She was offered a free meal, but bacon also wasn’t added to a second burger order.

--- MORE NEWS OF THE WEIRD»»

Police say she fired a shot through the restaurant. No one was injured.

A Kent County Circuit Court jury convicted her March 25. Judge Paul Sullivan on Tuesday sentenced her to one to five years for shooting at a building, plus two years for possessing a firearm during a felony.

Torres says she’s sorry “but it’s over and done with.”

PONCE DE LEON — Pensacola resident Joshua Brandyn Gaskey now faces two counts of murder in Holmes County.

Sheley Glenn Brooks and his wife Jacqulyn Brooks were found shot in the head Saturday at a home in Ponce de Leon, according to the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office.

Jacqulyn Brooks was dead when emergency crews arrived.

Sheley Brooks, who had been discharged from Bay Medical Sacred Heart Monday, died Tuesday evening, according to Lt. Adrienne Odum with the Sheriff’s Office.

The couple were the father and mother of Walton County Deputy County Administrator Dede Hinote.

Gaskey was being held Wednesday in the Escambia County jail on charges of grand theft, fraud and larceny when he was connected to the shootings.

The Sheriff’s Office has charged him with one open count of murder in Jacqulyn Brooks’ death and was likely processing another murder charge Wednesday, Odum said.

Odum said she did not know when Gaskey might be transferred to Holmes County for a first appearance. Court records indicate it could be awhile.

Gaskey is being held on a $525,000 bond in Escambia. He will be arraigned there May 14, according to jail records.

He also must appear in Santa Rosa County, where records show another hold has been placed on him.

Odum said an arrest report filed in the Gaskey case would be released “once investigators get everything together.”

She declined to release information about a motive for the shooting or what, if any, relationship Gaskey might have had with the Brooks family.

PANAMA CITY — Two people have been arrested in connection with an armed robbery of a downtown bank and getaway attempt, according the Panama City Police Department officials.

PCPD arrested Justin Travis Long, 22, and Ashley Danielle Gibson, 27, both from Knoxville, Tenn., after receiving reports Wednesday morning of a masked gunman at the Centennial Bank, 701 Harrison Ave., demanding money from tellers, PCPD reported.

How much money was taken remained unclear Wednesday, however no injuries were reported.

Shortly before 10:30 a.m., PCPD received a call reporting a robbery alarm had been activated at Centennial Bank. According to police, dispatchers contacted a teller at the bank who said an armed robbery had just occurred. A man with a surgical mask handed the teller a robbery note and threatened the teller with a gun, they told police.

The masked man then fled the scene with cash from the teller drawer and entered a waiting vehicle in the parking lot, police reported.

The bank employee was able to describe the suspect and the car he’d left in, and patrol officers stopped the car, about four blocks away, at 11th Street and Grace Avenue. Long and Gibson were within the vehicle along with the money, the robbery note, mask and gun, officers said.

Police did not release how much money was recovered from the suspects.

Long has been charged with armed bank robbery. Gibson was charged with principal to armed bank robbery. Both were taken to Bay County Jail to await first appearance.

Formerly Doral Bank, Centennial in February took over operations of the four Bay County branches. Following the incident, the bank had a sign on the front door that the business would be temporarily closed.

Eric King, marketing director with the bank, said Centennial’s drive thru remained open Wednesday and walk-in operations will resume today. King also confirmed that no one was injured in the incident.

“Everybody was safe and sound,” he said. “That is our first priority, the safety of our employees and our customers.”

PANAMA CITY BEACH — A man was rescued from a television station tower on Thursday, the Panama City Fire Department reported.

Fire crews responded to a call at the WJHG station at 8195 Front Beach Road, shortly after 3 a.m., PCFD reported. Bay County Fire Rescue also responded as did the Bay County Sheriff’s Office, with 15 firefighters on the scene, PCFD reported.

Firefighters found the man, whose name and age were not released in the report, approximately 160 feet up a trussed antenna in the rear of the property, according to the PCFD. The man remained in contact with rescuers via cell phone throughout the process, which PCFD said lasted two hours. All rescue team members were safely on the ground in 150 minutes.

The man was secured to the tower with a victim harness and anchored by two rope rescue systems and was lowered to the ground, PCFD said. PCFD reported no injuries to the man and thanked the other agencies for aiding in what it called a “very technical type of rescue.”

PANAMA CITY — A Bay County jury convicted Ashley April Anderson on Thursday of trafficking meth.

Assistant State Attorney Christa Diviney and Devin Collier showed jurors during the one day trial that deputies found Anderson, 35, in possession of more than 28 grams of methamphetamine when they stopped a vehicle she was driving March 20, 2014. The meth, and a quantity of GHB, were found in a backpack.

Anderson, of 7316 Beach Drive, Panama City Beach, was found guilty as charged of trafficking in methamphetamine, possession of GHB and driving with a suspended license. She will be sentenced March 4.

TALLAHASSEE (AP) — Florida consumers filling up at the gas pump may have had their credit card information stolen.

Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam said Thursday that a sweep of roughly 6,100 gas stations in the last few weeks led to the discovery of “skimmers” in 81 locations. The devices enable someone to illegally obtain credit card and debit card information.

The devices were found inside gas station pumps stretching from Miami-Dade County all the way to Florida's Panhandle. The largest number of “skimmers” were found in the three South Florida counties of Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach.

But Putnam, noting that authorities found two devices in the North Florida town of Live Oak, said people should be careful regardless of where they live in the state.

“You should not feel safe just because you are not in a major metropolitan area or in a major tourist destination,” said Putnam in an interview.

Putnam said that the information about the “skimmers” was being given to law-enforcement authorities to investigate. He said that his office would continue to sweep through gas stations searching for the devices.

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is responsible for inspecting gas station pumps to make sure they are dispensing the right grade and right amount. Putnam said he ordered the sweep after getting reports from inspectors about finding the skimming devices.

The department is urging consumers to buy gas with cash, or use a credit card instead of debit card since many credit-card companies have immediate fraud protection. They also urge people to use a gas pump closer to the front of the store. Thieves often place skimmers at the pumps that are farther away from the store.

PANAMA CITY — Officers investigating the death of a 2-year-old girl are considering filing additional charges against the child’s mother and her boyfriend.

Officials with the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, the 14th Circuit Medical Examiner and the State Attorney’s Office met Wednesday for a routine status conference to discuss the investigation into the death of the 2-year-old. However, additional charges against the child’s mother and her boyfriend have not been filed, according to officials.

Jessica Leigh Dziura, 26, and her boyfriend, 27-year-old Stephen Aaron Young, were arrested and charged with child neglect with bodily harm after officers arrived at an Altha gas station April 2 to find Dzuria with the unresponsive child. The couple, of Altha, is being held without bond as investigators look into additional charges.

According to the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office, Dziura was driving with her 2-year-old daughter to the hospital at about 11 a.m. but stopped just south of Altha at a gas station on State 71 to ask for help. EMS crews responded to a 911 call that the child was unresponsive. Paramedics administered CPR on the little girl as the ambulance was en route to the local hospital before being airlifted to Tallahassee, officials reported.

The next night, after her father and 5-year-old brother said goodbye to her, Anya Faith Dziua was taken off life support, officials said.

Results from an autopsy are pending. However, following the incident, Calhoun Sheriff Glenn Kimbrel said the child suffered some type of head injury. How the injury occurred is under investigation.

PANAMA CITY BEACH — Promoters of an event billed as a “Freaknik” dance party have called off their annual Panama City Beach gathering.

The Bay County Sheriff’s Office received a letter Thursday after a day of intense discussions from one of the promoters canceling the party at the Palms Conference Center on Front Beach Road. The event was scheduled for this weekend, and an additional 50 officers had been allocated to police the event. However, promoters said due to the events of this year’s Spring Break and the public reaction to the event, they decided against proceeding with plans to host the party.

“Considering the fact that the city has been undergoing scrutiny about incidents that occurred during Spring Break, we felt that our event wasn’t appropriate at this point in time to take place in Panama City Beach,” wrote Jeremy Russell, of L-Block Promotions. “We would like to apologize to the citizens of Panama City Beach for our poor judgment.”

Management of the Palms Conference Center did not return a request for additional comments Thursday.

BCSO officials said the discussion spanned all day Thursday, but officials had been in contact with the promoter for days to reach a conclusion.

Following a request from Sheriff Frank McKeithen for up to $40,000 from the Bay County Commission for additional police presence, the event calling for “Southeast Georgia to take over Panama City” became a point of contention for people rallying against Spring Break-type events. But promoters of the event said it was not affiliated with Spring Break. One organizer, Jaquay Wimbo Wimberly, said it was more like a “reunion” of somewhere between 300 and 400 people.

Nevertheless, numerous people took to social media to rail against it.

McKeithen expressed deep concern over the event becoming dangerous and requested the additional officers along with an extension of ordinances banning alcohol on the beaches, shortening “last call” at bars to 2 a.m. and barring from clubs anyone under 21 without military ID. The Bay County Commission granted BCSO funding for the officers, but the ordinance extensions were denied.

Commissioners also assured the sheriff Tuesday that if he felt the need to shut down the event, Commission Chairman Guy Tunnell would sign off on a declaration of a “state of emergency,” allowing the sheriff to shut the party down.

Despite the canceling of the L-Block “Freaknik” event, BCSO officials reported that additional force still will be in place for the dates the event was planned.

“Due to the manner in which the event was advertised, we will remain vigilant with additional patrol resources in place as the situation dictates,” said Maj. Tommy Ford.

BONIFAY — Half a dozen volunteer firefighters are in debt after organizing a festival intended to raise money needed to replace their aging bunker gear.

Last month’s seventh annual Down Home Street Festival, a tradition started in 2009 to be a fundraiser for Bonifay Fire and Rescue and the Bonifay Police Department, did not end with thousands in profits going to each department as it had in previous years. In fact, it left six firefighters owing a $12,500 loan.

This year’s daytime festivities extended into the night with the addition of the Down Home Music Fest — an event successful in bringing quality entertainment to festivalgoers, but in the end consumed any profit the festival made.

“The difference this year is we had to use that money to pay for the entertainment at the concert,” said Travis Cook, assistant chief at Bonifay Fire and Rescue. “There’s really no money to split up between the two departments.”

Organizers knew the Music Fest would be costly to put on, but saw great potential in the event as a revenue generator. They projected the concert could bring 5,000 people through the gates that night at $20 to $25 a head, but pouring rain kept the crowd down to only a few hundred.

The Music Fest’s headlining entertainer, Dustin Lynch, along with stage and sound were big ticket expenses in putting the concert together. Organizers needed considerable funding upfront to secure a $25,000 contract for Lynch to perform. Half the money was due with the signed contract in January, and the other half was to be paid before Lynch stepped on stage that night. 

Firefighters knew they would need solid financial backing to secure Lynch’s performance. Cook approached the city of Bonifay, which had been in charge of festival finances in its first six years, and asked for the city’s support back in September. Council members unanimously passed a motion to cover festival expenses up to $50,000 if sponsorships and ticket sales weren’t generated prior to the concert. Organizers enthusiastically moved forward with planning the concert.

Unfortunately, Cook said the city backed out on financing the music festival in January. City attorney Lucas Taylor told organizers the city could not legally loan firefighters money for the festival because it was not a city event and the festival did not have nonprofit status.

“That’s when we had to look for someone to get the $12,500,” Cook said. The volunteer firefighters relied on a private citizen to loan that amount, with the agreement repayment would come from ticket sales. But the night of the concert, organizers began to sweat as rain kept the crowd they’d anticipated down to a few hundred people.

“We were counting money by the minute. By the end of the night, we raised enough to get Dustin Lynch to get out of his bus and do the concert,” Cook said. “We scraped it up, but we still owe quite a bit of money.”

On top of $12,500 to secure the headliner, the festival racked up a $12,500 bill for the stage and lighting and another $3,300 to rent generators at a deep discount. Cook said the festival brought in enough to cover the March 21 concert, but nothing more.

“Basically, we’re in the hole and we still need money for bunker gear,” he said. Six volunteer firefighters still owe an individual $12,500 loaned to help them anchor the music fest.

As the name implies, volunteer firefighters are not paid a salary. The city covers expenses to make the fire department function and pays dispatchers to page volunteers when emergency calls come in. The city does not have it in the budget to replenish bunker gear for 17 volunteer firefighters at a cost of $2,500 each. A full set of gear includes fireproof jackets, pants, boots, gloves and hood. Gear should be replaced about every five years.

After the festival, the Bonifay Kiwanis made a $2,500 donation to help firefighters to offset festival expenses. Bonifay Fire and Rescue also set up a GoFundMe account with the hope a simple donation platform will help them acquire gear needed to protect them when responding to fires.

BONIFAY — A DeFuniak Springs man rejected his attorney’s advice to plead no contest on charges related to the suspect firing shots at a Holmes County Sheriff’s deputy during a 2008 pursuit.

A status hearing was called for 42-year-old Matthew Olin Bryant on Thursday leading up to the suspect’s trial beginning next week. In September 2008, Holmes County Sheriff deputy Lt. Michael Raley pulled over a suspicious vehicle thought to be connected to a burglary call received a few days prior. Bryan was driving the vehicle and handed his driver’s license over to Raley, but Bryant sped away and a pursuit began.

During the pursuit, Bryan allegedly fired a 12-guage shotgun at Raley’s vehicle, striking the hood and windshield. Raley was struck in the head as shots pierced the windshield, causing non-life-threatening injuries.

Bryan was later located by Walton County Sheriff’s deputies near his DeFuniak Springs home. He was still armed and fled once again on foot but was captured and arrested after a multi-agency manhunt.

Bryan was charged with aggravated battery of a law enforcement officer, discharging a firearm from a vehicle, shooting into an occupied vehicle, possession of a firearm by a felon and attempting to elude police.

After sitting down for nearly an hour with his attorneys and members of his family for a status conference Thursday, Bryan went against the advice of his attorneys Clay Adkinson and Clayton J.M. Adkinson to accept a plea of no contest on all charges carrying maximum penalties of life in prison for aggravated battery on the deputy, 15 years for each charge of possessing and shooting the firearm and five years for attempting to elude police.

Bryan tried instead to negotiate a guilty plea in exchange for 11 years in prison plus credit for his time served since the incident almost seven years ago.

Circuit Judge Christopher Patterson advised Bryan that Thursday’s conference was his last opportunity to negotiate a plea with the state’s attorney. He didn’t budge on entering the new plea.

Bryan’s trial is the only one scheduled next week in Holmes County. Jury selection begins Monday at 8:30 a.m.

PANAMA CITY — Officers are working a case of identity theft and is asking the public to assist in identifying the suspect, according to The Bay County Sheriff’s Office.

The victim discovered Thursday that someone had used her name and personal information to open credit accounts at several local businesses. An investigation revealed that a white or Hispanic female visited several retail businesses between April 4 and April 7 used the victim’s name and personal information to open credit accounts and then used these unauthorized accounts to conduct about $8,745.34 in fraudulent transactions, BCSO reported.

--- VIDEO: THE SUSPECT»»

The suspect is described as a white or Hispanic female, in her 30s, short, medium build with medium length light-colored hair. She has been observed wearing different outfits but always carries the same large, dark-colored purse.

Officers believe that she is traveling in a white mini-van, possibly a Dodge Grand Caravan. Anyone with information is asked to contact the BCSO at 747-4700 or Crime Stoppers at 785-TIPS.

PONCE DE LEON — Joshua Brandyn Gaskey already was wanted in Escambia County for stealing checks from a church when he authorities believe he killed Sheley and Jacqulyn Brooks in a home on Grant Road in Holmes County.

He was arrested in Escambia County the same day Jacqulyn Brooks was found dead and Sheley mortally wounded.

A Walton County sheriff’s deputy actually was the first law officer on the scene.

Grant Road in Ponce de Leon is near the Walton-Holmes county line, and a deputy was about 3 miles from the crime at 5:55 p.m. when he received a call for assistance, according to a Sheriff’s Office report.

The deputy entered the home through a sliding glass door and reported finding Jacqulyn Brooks dead in a chair.

Sheley Brooks was “approximately 5 feet away from Jacqulyn sitting in his chair,” the report said. “Sheley had labored breathing and was not conscious.”

Two Holmes County deputies joined the Walton deputy shortly, according to reports released by both agencies. They searched the home and secured the crime scene.

Sheley Brooks was taken to  Bay Medical Sacred Heart in Panama City. He was discharged later and died Tuesday evening at another location, according to the Holmes County Sheriffs’ Office.

Gaskey, 28, of Pensacola, eventually will be moved from Escambia to Holmes County to face murder charges, according to Holmes County Lt. Adrienne Odum.

Gaskey also faces charges for a probation violation in Santa Rosa County.

The deceased couple are the parents of Walton County Deputy Administrator Dede Hinote.

PANAMA CITY — One of three college students charged with what authorities called a Spring Break “gang rape” was an acquaintance of the victim, according to arrest records.

George Davon Kennedy Jr., 21, was extradited to Bay County on Thursday and charged as the third man connected with a March sexual battery that involved multiple perpetrators. Kennedy, a student of Middle Tennessee University, was arrested April 15 in Georgia and held until authorities transported him to Bay County Jail.

He is the third suspect to be arrested after a video of the incident surfaced while officers investigated a Troy, Ala., shooting. Troy Police got the video off a cellphone of a person of interest in the shooting. The video depicted numerous men sexually assaulting the victim.

BCSO reported the woman was spending time on the Beach with several friends. She told investigators she made contact with a group of guys who gave her an unknown drink and later became “incapacitated, and in need of assistance of others to leave the beach on this day,” officers reported.

In the video, the victim feebly attempts to block the men’s hands but is restrained by her assailants. One man can be seen holding the victim’s arm and leg to restrict her movements. She later identified that man as Kennedy, whom she described as a friend of hers and accompanied her to the Beach, BCSO reported.

However, the two other men arrested in connection with the incident were not acquaintances, she told investigators. BCSO reported the victim has indicated she wanted to press charges against all involved.

Kennedy was charged as a principal to sexual battery by multiple perpetrators. Delonté Martistee, a 22-year-old senior from Bainbridge, Ga., and Ryan Calhoun, a 23-year-old sophomore from Mobile, Ala., were arrested in Alabama on April 9 in connection with the incident. Both men, students at Troy University, have been charged with sexual battery by multiple perpetrators.

Martistee and Calhoun are scheduled for arraignment May 12. They were held on a $50,000 bond, and Calhoun has since bonded out.

One more suspect in the video remains unidentified and at large. BCSO said they continue to actively searching for him.

PANAMA CITY — Panama City police were investigating a reported death Friday night.

Officers responded to 804 Frank Nelson Drive about 8:10 p.m. A Crime Scene Unit was on the scene, but a cause of death had not been determined or released.
