Man wanted in Ill. killing is arrested in Calif.

A 65-year-old man wanted for a 1996 killing outside a Chicago pool hall has been arrested in California.

The FBI says Giovanni Spiller was arrested last week outside of his home in Hemet, Calif., and is awaiting extradition to Illinois.

Authorities say Spiller was charged with the killing in December 1996, but fled the following year. He’s believed to have traveled to the Philippines, among other places.

Agents found Spiller after receiving a tip he was living in California, where he was allegedly using a fake name.

The Chicago Tribune reports the tipster called the FBI after seeing a story about fugitives that featured Spiller.
