VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - This is not how April Speller planned to spend her son Keyon Turnerâs birthday - outside in the cold, surrounded by people holding candles and balloons.
The two had dinner plans tonight.
âWe were all going to go out to the Melting Pot because thatâs his favorite place,â said Speller.
Police say the suspect in this shooting, 21-year-old Treshaun Lamont Snipes, was taken into custody just after midnight and charged with second-degree murder, using a firearm in commission of a felony and having a concealed weapon. He is currently being held in the Virginia Beach City Jail.
