George Zimmerman, whom the American court acquitted in a resonant case of the murder of a black teenager Travon Martin, saved the life of a whole family of four people.
This happened last Thursday, July 18. But the police told about everything only now, reports ABC News . On one of the highways in the vicinity of the city of Sanford (Florida), the Ford Explorer car rolled over. In the cabin were blocked by the spouses of Dana and Mark Ghestle and their two children.
Zimmerman and his comrade helped the victims get out of the car before the police arrived. It is noted that this accident occurred about one and a half kilometers from the place where Zimmerman shot the teenager.
As it turned out that Zimmerman was not reported at the scene of the accident. It is only known that he was not a witness to a car accident and left the scene as soon as he answered the police questions.
ABC notes that this is the first news about Zimmerman, whose liberation made so much noise in the United States. On July 13, the jury of Senford handed him an acquittal of accusations of the murder of an unarmed black, 17-year-old teenager Travon Martin. He was killed on February 26, 2012 in the village of Orlando, a suburbs of Senford.
On that day, the police received a call from Zimmerman, who introduced himself as a "warrior guarding public order." He announced the "extremely suspicious type", which, according to him, was aimlessly staggering in the rain along the street.
The dispatcher advised not to pursue a young man and sent a patrol car to the place. However, Zimmerman did not follow the recommendation and shot the teenager, subsequently saying that he acted for self -defense.
Many in the USA are sure that this case has a racial background. After the justification of Zimmerman, thousands of indignant African Americans entered the streets of American cities. The protests resumed last Saturday, July 19, when shares were held in 100 cities of the country demanding to revise this case.
Meanwhile, ABC also reports that Tsimmerman and his family members are threatened. Their authors promise to kill "everyone who wears the DNA of Zimmerman." For this reason, his parents were forced to change their place of residence. The former warrior himself, going outside, puts on a body armor.
