Fugitive arrest on sex charges

Over the weekend, a fugitive from the Mossy Head community surrendered to authorities. In 2006, Todd Spikes was arrested after being shown on NBC's “To Catch a Predator” program soliciting sex from what he believed to be an underage teenage girl. But in reality, it was an undercover investigator in Flagler County, Fla.

The 44-year-old suspect was a veteran law enforcement officer having spent time as a policeman in both Florala and DeFuniak Springs. Spikes is now being held without bond at the Walton County Jail. He's facing two charges:  Lewd and lascivious exhibition with the victim less than 16, and using the computer to seduce and solicit a child.

Flagler County authorities are expected to extradite Spikes to their jurisdiction.
