Not sure what happen but it might looks like you might have broken the bolt in the middle of it. If the head spins but the back of the bolt doesn't it might be the bolt is in half. You might want to take it to a shop to look at.

Re: Control Arm bolt (teknik_civic)
Its gotta be a broken bolt. If you try taking it out then you'll notice that the end of the bolt is still in place but the top bolt comes out. What you'll have to do now is drill it out ot tap it out. It'll be a pain but its better than driving around with it like that.
