Arrested in Lynn Haven? All Bay County bookings process through the Bay County Jail. We connect you with licensed local bondsmen.
Lynn Haven has its own police department (LHPD) serving this residential city north of Panama City. All arrests transport to the Bay County Jail at 5700 Star Lane in Panama City. LHPD operates from 825 Ohio Avenue.
Lynn Haven sustained severe damage from Hurricane Michael in 2018. The city has undergone extensive rebuilding, changing the enforcement landscape. Construction-related crimes, contractor fraud, and building code violations became prominent during recovery. LHPD rebuilt its force and facilities alongside the community.
SR-77 (Highway 77) runs through Lynn Haven connecting to Panama City and Chipley to the north. Transmitter Road is the city's primary east-west connector. Both corridors see traffic enforcement. Lynn Haven's proximity to Tyndall Air Force Base means military families are a significant part of the community.
