PANAMA CITY BEACH — The Panama City Beach Police Department closed its investigation into alleged mistreatment of veterans by fraternity members during the annual Warrior Beach Retreat in April and announced there was no probable cause for an arrest in the matter, according to police reports.
PCBPD released the 22-page investigative report on Tuesday into the incident reported at Laketown Wharf. A press release said investigators did establish some of the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity members’ behavior was vulgar and inappropriate toward veterans.
However, due to a lack of cooperation from the fraternity and a witness being unable to positively identify a suspect, PCBPD said it “could not sustain members of the fraternity singled out veterans as a group or establish if there was any criminal intent regarding their behavior.”
