Safe trick or treating locations for this Halloween

BAY COUNTY, Fla. (WJHG/WECP) - Trick or treating in certain neighborhoods may be difficult and dangerous this year.

Nails and other hazardous items are still laying in the street, so the Bay County Sheriff's Office highly encourages parents to consider taking their children to designated Halloween party locations instead of wandering the streets.

Ruth Corley, the Bay County Sheriff's Office Public Information Officer, said, "We would like to encourage families to enjoy the Halloween celebration as they always do, but we encourage them to go to the established parties and celebrations that are already taking place in the city."

Some of the parties will be taking place in downtown Panama City, Lynn Haven's Sheffield Park, and Pier Park.
