After speaking with investigators, Fernandez was reportedly charged with first-degree murder in the alleged shooting of Ludvin Antonio Guzman Morales, 44, earlier this year. 

Authorities allege Morales was watching a fight on Central Avenue Jan. 24, when he tried to kick one of the suspects as the altercation moved further down the road, WBTV reported.

Morales and the suspect began circling the area as they both tried to kick each other, but did not actually start a fight, police reportedly wrote in an affidavit. 

The suspect and Fernandez then reportedly got into their vehicle and subsequently pulled up next to Morales to allegedly shoot him again before driving off.

Morales' lifeless body was found in the road around 3:30 a.m., WBTV reported. 

Authorities did not initially name a suspect in the days following the shooting.

Mora was transported to a hospital, where he later died from his injuries. 

After his arrest in an unrelated traffic stop Wednesday, Fernandez allegedly confessed to both killings, WSOC reported.

He was subsequently booked into the Mecklenburg County jail on two counts of murder and other charges and was denied bond, according to booking records.

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department and ICE did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
