Johnarian Travez Allen, 29, was shot eight times and killed in recent days in Union Springs, the county seat of Bullock County.
The motive for such a brutal killing?
According to WSFA, the alleged killer says Allen, then a pedestrian, was crossing the street at too slow a pace.
Jeremiah Wesley Penn, 22, soon turned himself in and confessed to being the shooter, per Union Springs Police Chief Danny Jackson.
The television outlet reported that Penn now faces a capital murder charge. If found guilty of that charge, he would be sentenced to either life in prison without the possibility of parole or death.
