PANAMA CITY BEACH — A second suspect in a violent Panama City Beach home invasion has been arrested, according to court documents.
Gregory Keith Cain, 45, was arrested Monday after being sought by the Bay County Sheriff’s Office in connection with an Oct. 9 stabbing. The victim, who lived in one of the units at 217 Carol Place, survived the incident and BCSO deputies arrested Ricky Lee Young, 46, while the search for Cain continued, according to court documents.
BCSO deputies responded to 217 Carol Place at about 11:30 p.m. for a burglary. Cain, whose address is listed as the same as the victim, and Young, whose address is listed as 203 Rose Lane, allegedly entered another room on the property belonging to another person.
The victim told deputies he was in a private room when Cain and Young entered and began striking and kicking him against his will. The victim said he did not incite or invite them into his room.
Deputies were not certain what weapon was used in the burglary, but the victim suffered a 4-inch laceration to his left arm, a stab wound in his back and a puncture wound in his back, BCSO reported.
Cain was arrested on charges of burglary with aggravated battery, and his bond was set at $25,000 during his first appearance.
Young has pleaded not guilty to the charges of burglary with aggravated battery against him.
BCSO reports do not detail the motive for the burglary. However, each man has either had charges or currently has charges against him involving methamphetamine.
