Georgie, Georgie, Georgie.
George Zimmerman was arrested and charged with felony aggravated assault, misdemeanor battery and misdemeanor criminal mischief, Seminole County Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy Dennis Lemma said during a press conference Monday in Sanford, Fla., hours after Zimmerman was arrested in nearby Apopka, roughly 15 miles northwest of Orlando. Georgie is also alleged, alleged, mind you, to have pointed a shotgun at her before he kicked her out of her own house and barricaded the door with furniture. The neighbors are thrilled.
Zimmerman was unarmed when authorities entered the house, Lemma said, adding that he appeared “rather passive” and “offered no resistance” to the deputies. "He's had the opportunity to encounter this in the past."
"Just when you thought you heard the last of George Zimmerman," said neighbor Catherine Cantrell.
Zimmerman and his estranged wife were involved in a domestic dispute in September that attracted police. Police said no charges were filed against either of them because of a lack of evidence. That dispute took place just days after Shellie Zimmerman filed divorce papers.
Zimmerman was pulled over for speeding near Dallas in July and again in September in Lake Mary, Fla. He was given a warning on the first incident and issued a $256 ticket for going 60 mph in a 45-mph zone in the latter.
