Springfield Police say they’ve arrested the suspect accused of murdering a man on the east side earlier this month.
Kirk Hardy was killed at the corner of 14th and Cass.
Authorities say a Crimestoppers tip led them to Quarren Smallie, who was in a house in the 1900 block of south 19th street. Police set up surveillance, gathered information, obtained a warrant and took Smallie into custody. He’s being held on a million dollars bond on a first degree murder charge.
Latona Thomas was also arrested — she’s been charged with obstructing justice, aiding and abetting a fugitive plus a host of drug charges.
