OK folks, just a hit-and-run post here on the Zimmerman/Apperson kerfuffle.
Commenter “Merrymary” from our previous post on this subject (George Zimmerman Attempted Shooting – New Facts Released) was kind enough to send me the audio of the third-party 911 call made after Matthew Apperson fired a shot at George Zimmerman; she also provided some police documents. (Thanks!)
We, in turn, provide them to you.
Here’s the 911 call, or at least the brief portion released so far by the police:
Here’s the Lake Mary Police Department written press statement:
And here’s a partial (preliminary) police report, which is largely just a check-box document they need in order to initiate a criminal investigation. What’s listed there that appears as a “criminal charge” should not be taken as substantive.
Stay tuned—I expect we’ll have more as the day proceeds.
