A man was wanted shooting and killing a man in a pizzeria after a fender bender is now in custody, Philadelphia police said Sunday.

Jamel Brunson, 48, surrendered to homicide detectives on Saturday, a police spokesman said in an email.

Brunson was wanted after police said he was in a minor car accident just after midnight on November 21. He then got out of his car and entered Pete’s Pizza, on the 2000 block of Ridge Avenue, with the other driver.

A fight broke out inside the store and Brunson pulled out a gun before shooting the other driver.

The victim, a man in his 20s, has not yet been publicly identified.

Police later released surveillance images of Brunson and advertised a $20,000 reward for information leading to his arrest.
