Title: Police: George Zimmerman involved in Florida shooting
Post by: thelakelander on May 11, 2015, 03:03:58 PM
QuoteGeorge Zimmerman -- acquitted by a Florida jury in the death of Trayvon Martin -- was involved in a shooting in Lake Mary, Florida, on Monday, police spokeswoman Bianca Gillett said.

Zimmerman apparently suffered a minor gunshot wound, CNN affiliate WESH-TV reported, citing the police chief.

The affiliate spoke with one witness, Ricardo Berrare, who also said Zimmerman's injuries didn't look serious.

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

The shooting is under investigation, but it appeared to be some type of road rage incident, Gillett told CNN.

Police said there were no fatalities in the shooting and said the department would not release additional information until a briefing planned for Monday afternoon.

The guy is an idiot. If they'd left him to his own devices, he would have incriminated himself by now. But no, the rabble rousers demanded that he be arrested before there was a case, and so he got acquitted.

This guy has some serious issues.  Certainly not worth the air time and publicity he is receiving.

He certainly seems to be a lightning rod for men behaving badly. Besides all that even if he didn't flash the gun certain public opinion is that he did it no matter what comes out in the investigation.
