John Bacon, USA TODAY:

George Zimmerman, who won a controversial acquittal in the 2012 shooting death of Trayvon Martin, was involved in a shooting Monday in Central Florida, authorities said.

Lake Mary Police Department tweeted that "LMPD has responding to a shooting involving George Zimmerman. More information to follow."

Lake Mary Police Chief Steve Bracknell said it appeared Zimmerman suffered a minor gunshot wound, WESH in Orlando reported. WESH said Zimmerman's vehicle appeared to have a bullet hole in the passenger's window.

Bracknell said the shooting may have involved an "ongoing dispute" he did not detail.

"He walked normally into the ambulance, so he wasn't being helped or nothing," witness Ricardo Berrare told the station.

Zimmerman did not fire a weapon, the Orlando Sentinel reported, citing Bracknell. Calls to Bracknell from USA TODAY were not immediately returned.

Zimmerman, 31, was a neighborhood watch volunteer when he encountered Martin, a black, unarmed 17-year-old, in Zimmerman's gated community in Sanford, Fla., on Feb. 26, 2012. The tragedy that ensued set off protests across the nation and thrust "stand-your-ground" laws into the public spotlight.

Lawyers for Zimmerman, who is Latino, opted for a more traditional self-defense argument. He was acquitted in July, setting off another round of protests.

Zimmerman has had several brushes with the law since his acquittal in July 2013. In January he was accused of assault by a girlfriend, but she recanted and no charges were filed.

In September 2013, his estranged wife, Shellie, called 911 claiming he had punched her father and was threatening her with a gun. She did not press charges. Two months later, Zimmerman was arrested and accused of domestic violence by girlfriend Samantha Scheibe. Scheibe dropped the charges.



Word is that he was shot at while waving his gun around in traffic. Maybe someone shot him in self-defence.

That guys life has been nothing but a huge mess

He approached police with a gun in his hand after a call about a home invasion? Sorry, that's on him.

People broke into his house, then he was shot before the cops could ID themselves. I dunno

[DJBrenton]

He stood his ground against two guys who didn't identify themselves as police before shooting? Sounds like he could have shot the police justifiably.

And other than the one incident with Trayvon Martin, all of the charges in every other incident have been dropped. Which means either they settled, or he didn't actually do any of that and the women he surrounds himself with are completely batshit.

Seriously. He did that.

Was it pointed at them? Was the man being threatening? It doesn't sound like it to me.

Obviously their weapons were out, they should've looked and positively identified a threat before discharging weapons.

Shoot first, ask questions later is a bad policy for police.

 

[tre]

i thought the policy was that they had to pry the gun from his cold, dead hands?

Again: He approached police with a gun in his hand.

YOU DONT FUCKING DO THAT. EVER.

Who's to say he knew he was approaching two police men? As far as the story goes, he opened his own back door as two unidentified men walked towards it. He'd just had a home invasion so could easily have thought it was the same men. Surely he has a right to carry a weapon in his own home?

the 2nd amendment clearly states that they have the right to bear arms. plural. not the right to bear just one.

if he had two, he'd be fine.

 

[DJBrenton]

Whereas in Canada you have the right to arm bears?

 

[tre]

yes, but only the polar bears. white power and all that.

 

[Amstel]

You racist.

You know they have black skin.
