Muniz and Spillers were arrested for accessory to murder. Muniz was additionally charged with possession of a stolen vehicle.


A man was arrested after barricading himself in a Southeast Bakersfield neighborhood.

According to the Bakersfield Police Department, Robbery and Homicide Detectives learned that Billy Gleghorn was inside of a residence on Karen Place near East Pacheco Road. Gleghorn was identified as a suspect in a shooting at the Vagabond Inn that left a man dead on Tuesday night.
