"I Know He Was Scared": Trayvon Martins Girlfriend Recounts Phone Call Right Before Fatal Shooting
Florida prosecutors have released a trove of documents, photographs and audio recordings revealing new details about the night George Zimmerman shot dead the unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida. We broadcast excerpts of the chilling recording of the police interview with Trayvons girlfriend. She and Trayvon were talking on the phone in the moments leading up to his death. "I know he was scared," the girl recounts. "I told him, 'Keep running!' ... He told me the guy was getting real close to him. And the next I hear is [Trayvon saying], 'Why are you following me for?'
I heard this man... say, 'What are you doing around here?' ... And I call Trayvon, 'Trayon, what's going on? Whats going on? ... Then, I am calling him and he didnt answer...You could hear someone had bumped Trayvon...I was still screaming, I was saying, 'Trayvon! Trayvon!'...And then the next thing the phone just shut off."
