The Muscogee County Coroners Office has determined the cause of death in the city's third homicide.
36-year-old Scott Jeremy Drago died from blunt force trauma to the head.
Earlier this week, Drago was involved in an altercation with 21-year-old Dustin Ray Horton.
Police said the dispute was over a parking space at the Waffle House on Veterans Parkway.
Police said Horton hit Drago numerous times on the head.
Drago then fell to the ground and hit his head. He was taken to the Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. Horton plead not guilty in court Tuesday. The case has been bound over to Superior Court.
