A 29-year-old pedestrian identified as Johnarian Travez Allen was shot eight times in Union Springs, a small town in Bullock County.
He was shot dead as he was taking “too long” to cross the street. That’s the shocking motive found by Alabama police department as part of a homicide investigation.
Allen had gone to a store to buy foodstuff but as he was walking across the road, the shooter apparently drove up and felt he was not moving out of the roadway fast enough, police officials said.
The shooter has been identified as Jeremiah Wesley Penn (22). He is currently in the Bullock County Jail on a capital murder charge.
