Narrative:
Aircraft #1 was cleared to land runway 27 followed by aircraft #2. Aircraft #1 was told to keep speed up on landing roll due to missing turn off. Aircraft #1 stopped on runway short of next turn-off requiring aircraft #2 to go around when over approach end of runway. I sent aircraft #2 around when I observed aircraft #1 stop. Aircraft #1 did not request any assistance and should not have come to a stop on the runway. Both aircraft were landing runway 27. When aircraft #2 went around I ordered him to stay low to miss aircraft #3, a beech baron just departed runway 35 and crossing runway 27 departure end at about 1000 ft AGL.
