George Zimmerman Injured by Flying Glass in Shooting, Police Say

By ASHLEY SOUTHALLMAY 11, 2015

George Zimmerman, the former neighborhood watch volunteer who fatally shot Trayvon Martin in 2012, was injured on Monday during a confrontation in Central Florida with a man who had previously accused him of making threats and stalking, according to local authorities.

The police said the shooting happened about 12:45 p.m. in Lake Mary, Fla., a small town near Orlando, and involved Mr. Zimmerman and Matthew Apperson, according to WESH, the local NBC affiliate.

Mr. Zimmerman’s lawyer, Don West, said that his client was injured by flying glass after a motorist fired a gunshot into the passenger’s side window of Mr. Zimmerman’s pickup truck, according to TMZ, the celebrity gossip and entertainment website...................

Mr. Zimmerman and Mr. Apperson were involved in a road rage incident in September, when Mr. Apperson said Zimmerman threatened to shoot him, according to The Orlando Sentinel. Days later, Mr. Apperson complained that Mr. Zimmerman was stalking him, according to the report. No charges were filed in those incidents..................

The shooting occurred in Lake Mary, a suburb of Orlando and WFTV said Zimmerman was shot in the face. WESH-TV in Orlando said the wound was minor.

Police said it appeared to be a "road rage incident," according to the FOX 35 television station in Orlando.

A bullet hole could be seen in the passenger window of Zimmerman's vehicle, WESH reported.

Witnesses told the television station that a man appearing to be Zimmerman was able to walk normally into an ambulance.

Reuters could not immediately confirm the reports with local authorities................

[Skittles]

1. there's some in the gungeon who think Zimmy is the real victim

oh yes

[riversedge]

3. I updated my post with NYTimes article.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

12. dafuck?

How does one justify such a position?

[Skittles]

20. cowards defend cowards

[BlancheSplanchnik]

30. sounds about right.

firds of a beather...

Yecch.

[Major Nikon]

39. In certain circles, Z is a hero

It's not that hard to figure out why.

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

51. "Georgie Boy"? Yes, he is a hero. A black kid was walking where he shouldnt have and killing

him is an act many consider a good deed.

Many consider that a good deed

many

[Major Nikon]

52. That and also because he was actually able to use his precious

[Skittles]

53. yup - it is a racist coward wet dream

[valerief]

57. The gungeon is the Discussionist of DU, IMHO. nt

[Skittles]

59. I agree, which is why I ignore them

[WestSideStory]

60. There is a teachable moment in this.

Regardless whether you are armed, it is best sometimes to walk away.

[onecaliberal]

2. He's a murdering POS

[Cha]

36. Yeah, we do know that.

[freshwest]

4. Under SYG, Mr. Apperson should not be bothered. Especially since Florida will do nothing about this

armed and dangerous walking ____!

Disgusting negligence.

Scott must be a big believer in culling the herd.

[Hoyt]

5. Unless there's a witness, or police can show he stalked the man, Zman will get off.

Like most gunners, he's trained on what to say if he screws up. He'll say he did not wave his gun, or if he did it was because he was afraid for his life.

[imnew]

7. Yeah but it's the other guy who shot at him , Zimmerman didn't fire

[Hoyt]

8. If he waved his gun, he provoked it and it's illegal. Of course he did it with T Martin and got off.

The other guy would get to claim self defense.

[grahamhgreen]

32. Other guy was "standing his ground", no doubt

[imnew]

6. He's always in the wrong palce atthe wrong time

[riversedge]

9. Zimmerman and Apperson were involved in a road rage incident last Sept according to nytimes..

.....Mr. Zimmerman and Mr. Apperson were involved in a road rage incident in September, when Mr. Apperson said Zimmerman threatened to shoot him, according to The Orlando Sentinel. Days later, Mr. Apperson complained that Mr. Zimmerman was stalking him, according to the report. No charges were filed in those incidents.

Pictures from the scene show a single bullet hole in the window of Mr. Zimmerman’s pickup.

[imnew]

11. Both sound unhingned

[avebury]

13. I read somewhere (can't remember where), that they have actually

had 3 altercations.

[bullwinkle428]

69. 3 altercations go WAY beyond mere "chance encounters". Clearly, someone is stalking someone.

We know nothing about this Apperson guy, but we sure as fuck know PLENTY about Zimmerman.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

17. I know...

.....the other guy missed.

[libdem4life]

10. Quelle Surprise.

[Ed Suspicious]

14. The guy is just dying to be arrested. Pick him up and get him the help he needs in the form

of a long time out.

[niyad]

15. this is how it feels to be on the other side, georgie boy, you worthless, murdering pos.

[amuse bouche]

16. "I really do not know how many times he has been arrested. -->George Zimmerman! "

6 mugshots = 6 arrests. Lucky 7 can't be very far away

[jtuck004]

19. Maybe the woman in the red dress can point him out next time. n/t

[skamaria]

62. Nice reference.

NT.

[jmowreader]

21. Lucky 7 probably won't be a mugshot

George Zimmerman won "most likely to be shot dead" in his high school yearbook, and he seems to be doing everything he can to fulfill that prophecy.

[amuse bouche]

22. Can't say I would be surprised or sorry

[notadmblnd]

28. I'm saving my new dancing shoes for his grave.

[Marthe48]

31. Thought I'd pour a bottle of beer ..

run it through my kidneys first

[notadmblnd]

35. Not a ad idea either

[riqster]

63. Filtration. Very polite of you.

[heaven05]

18. zpig will end up at the right place at the wrong time,

one day, and I feel he will only have himself to blame. He's heading down a real dark path. His monster demons are going to be his downfall.

[rufus dog]

23. How long before a MAGZ organization starts up?

[nikto]

24. I am so shocked and surprised by this

George Zimmerman, get in trouble with the law?
Naaaahhhh!
Impossible.

Must be somebody else.

[Rozlee]

25. He's a powder keg.

It's been three years since he murdered Trayvon Martin and the idiot is still trying to kill someone else. It won't be long before he does or before someone decides they've had enough of his shit.

[notadmblnd]

26. I still think he scratched his head when he ran into a tree branch

[Hoyt]

33. Me too. He darn sure didn't get scratch "having his head bashed into concrete."

[notadmblnd]

37. I think he ran into that small tree that was in the courtyard near where he murdered trayvon

it would account for all the scratches from his nose to the back of the top of his head

[angrychair]

27. Gun-humping moron

I have never owed a gun. I have never been in a situation I would have ever needed one. I have lived all over the country and in some not so nice places but it was never an issue. To often, Gun-owners like this idiot, end up in situation after situation, in which a gun is involved. How? At some point, it has to dawn on you "I'm doing it wrong".

[canuckledragger]

61. Because they look for or create those situations,

Of course.

Bullies looking for a fight will usually find one. Too bad it's usually other innocent bystanders that pay the price for their cowardice and arrogance.

[angrychair]

67. sad

but very true my friend.

[Miigwech]

29. Live by the gun

die by the gun ....

[AgingAmerican]

34. It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy

He is hell bent on getting himself killed. I have zero sympathy for him.

[Vinca]

38. So he was on the receiving end of "stand your ground?"

It's a shame the other guy wasn't a better shot.

[mackerel]

40. What's with the tinted windows? Are your front windows allowed to be tinted in Florida?

[NCTraveler]

43. Yes. Not as dark as the rear windows and not the windshield.

Making that illegal would actually get Floridians to take to the streets.

[Jackpine Radical]

41. So Georgie Porgie was out trolling for trouble.

And he got it.

Shitheads attract each other or something.

[C Moon]

42. I'm sure the ahole is loving the attention, though.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

45. I don't know if the guy does it for attention or is just fatally flawed.

Everything about him screams that he is a highly volatile powder keg. Which is why I never bought his whole "I was ambushed by Trayvon" argument, even though others did.

[C Moon]

48. Thanks. I agree. I wasn't suggesting he did these things for attention...

but I believe he relishes being in the spotlight—maybe thinking he's some kind of icon for some.

[OverBurn]

44. What a enormous piece of shit

[murielm99]

46. Apperson has a concealed carry permit

and is acting within the law. He was the one who called 911 after the shooting. He has reported that he is being stalked and feels threatened. I think he is trying to protect his life and safety, because no one else can do it.

Sooner or later, someone is going to kill Zimmerman. Whether it is right or not, I think it will happen. Zimmerman should have moved away from that area, and tried to keep a low profile.

I hope the police tell both of them to avoid each other. I don't know what else can be done.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

68. Zimmerman? Keep a low profile?

I don't think it's in him to keep a low profile, to live a "normal" life. I think there's something seriously wrong in his head.

But you're right. "Killed" is a likely outcome. Or prison. Or both.

[Downtown Hound]

47. Did this shitbag sell his soul to Satan or something?

Is he part of some secret, all powerful cult that controls everything and keeps him protected? He keeps dodging everything thrown his way.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

49. He's like some TV drama anti-hero.

Constantly having different "episodes" to deal with, and constantly escaping consequences every time by the skin of his teeth.

[riqster]

64. If so, Satan screwed him pretty good on the deal.

Did he get rich?

Did he get handsome?

Did he get smarts or talent?

Nope.

All he got was a dubious sort of fame.

[murielm99]

50. So maybe they are both competing to be

the ultimate Florida Man.

[awoke_in_2003]

54. Give me a "K". Give me an "A".

Give me an "R". Give me a "M". Give me an "A".

What's that spell?
What's that spell?
What's that spell?


Sorry, Country Joe and the Fish's performance at Woodstock is stuck in my head today.

[SummerSnow]

56. Does he work? Seems like he just drives around playing Dirty Harry

[demtenjeep]

58. it ought to be obvious this piece of flesh is a danger

every where he goes

[Jack-o-Lantern]

65. I bet he makes wee wee in his pants with excitement every time he thinks he may get a chance to kill

someone else.

[lonestarnot]

66. Tick toc tick toc tick toc.
