MIAMI (Reuters) – George Zimmerman (pictured, left), the Florida man who was acquitted of murder in the shooting of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin, was questioned by central Florida police in connection with a possible domestic violence incident, a spokesman said on Monday.
Lake Mary Police spokesman Zach Hudson said police “were trying to figure out exactly what happened” in the incident and that a gun was present.
Zimmerman Arrested After Gun Incident
George Zimmerman has been taken into custody in Lake Mary, Florida, after “an incident involving a gun with another person.”
Police say they were called to a Sprucewood Road residence to investigate an argument that involved a gun and a threat. Zimmerman’s mother in law, Machelle Dean, lives on Sprucewood Road, but it is unclear if the argument took place at her home. Police have confirmed that Zimmerman is in custody for a “possible domestic battery.”
This incident comes just days after Zimmerman’s wife, Shellie (pictured, right), filed for divorce.
