PETERSBURG, Va. -- Three hundred ninety days have passed since someone shot and killed Joey Spillane.
Spillane, 27, was killed while sitting in a car at a red light at the intersection of University Boulevard and High Street in Petersburg in November 2019.
On Friday, police announced the arrest of 20-year-old Sincere Quayles for the crime. Quayles was charged with first-degree murder.
"This the best Christmas present ever," Joey's mother Sharon Biermann said about the arrest. "It wasn't Joey in the wrong place at the wrong time, it was somebody who made a decision that was going to change everybody's life."
