Artemis II astronaut visits Cal Poly and police ID gym voyeur. Today’s top stories

The Tribune covered a range of major developments across San Luis Obispo County on June 16, from criminal cases and county policy to a NASA astronaut’s homecoming.

Here are key takeaways:

• Gym voyeurism suspect identified: Arroyo Grande police named 40-year-old Grover Beach resident Kyle L. Combs as the suspect accused of filming nearly 50 women in tanning booths at Planet Fitness. Investigators found more than 50 videos of 47 unique victims on his phone, and eight women have filed three lawsuits against Combs and Planet Fitness since April.
• Artemis pilot returns to Cal Poly: NASA astronaut and Cal Poly alumnus Victor Glover spoke to a packed Performing Arts Center crowd Monday night about his historic Artemis II mission. Glover and his crewmates traveled 252,756 miles from Earth — farther than humans had ever gone — and witnessed an in-space solar eclipse during the 10-day lunar fly-by.
• New limits on ICE in county facilities: The San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors voted 3-2 to require federal immigration officers to present a signed judicial warrant before accessing nonpublic areas in county facilities. The policy also bars federal agents from using county-owned public spaces as a staging area or operations base for immigration enforcement.
• Murder case to be tried as hate crime: Judge Jesse J. Marino denied a motion to dismiss the hate crime enhancement against 23-year-old Tyler Stevens, who is accused of murdering 34-year-old Todd Joseph Pinion because he was gay. Marino cited evidence including Pinion’s offer of oral sex and the discovery of Pinion’s fox mask in Stevens’ possession; if convicted of first-degree murder, Stevens faces life without parole.
• Beatles tribute band heading to Paso Robles: The Fab Four: The Ultimate Tribute will perform at Vina Robles Amphitheatre on Aug. 15. Tickets go on sale June 19 at 10 a.m. on Ticketmaster for the Emmy-winning tribute act.
• 59-condo development opens in Grover Beach: Coastal Community Builders held the grand opening Saturday of Encore, a four-story, 59-unit mixed-use building with four ground-floor commercial spaces at West Grand Avenue and 4th Street. The developer plans at least two more mixed-use projects on Grover Beach’s West End, including the 23-unit Trinity and a 37-unit replacement for Beach Front Plaza.
• Reptile-focused zoo opens in Grover Beach: Andrew Barton opened BK’s Reptiles and Zoo on May 22, combining a retail store with a zoo housing more than 30 reptiles and amphibians, including a 13-foot reticulated python. The business offers paid feeding experiences with turtles, tortoises and lorikeets, with party services and a junior zookeeper summer camp planned.
