Bainbridge -- An arrest has been made in the murder of a Decatur County Road Department employee.

The Collier County, Florida Sheriff's office arrested 33-year-old Holly Sorrells Wednesday inside the victim's truck in Florida. Charles Spooner's body was found last Friday after he failed to show up for work at the road department two days in a row. Spooner was shot while lying in his bed.

Sheriff Wiley Griffin said charges may be filed against another suspect. Griffin said Sorrells and Spooner were friends, but they haven't established a motive for the murder.
