PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. (WMBB) — A motorcyclist was arrested Sunday after he lost control of his vehicle while attempting to perform a wheelie.
Panama City Beach Police charged Sean Joseph McKinnon, 40, from Lynn Haven with reckless driving. Officers also released video of the incident in an attempt to draw attention to the “consequences of reckless driving.”
“We are sharing the video to reinforce the message that road safety must be a priority for all. Your actions have an impact. Stay safe, stay aware, and respect the rules of the road,” officers wrote in a news release. “Stay safe, stay aware, and respect the rules of the road.”

McKinnon is scheduled to appear before a judge for the first time Tuesday afternoon.
