George Zimmerman suffers facial wounds after Lake Mary shooting

George Zimmerman, the former Neighborhood Watch volunteer who shot and killed Trayvon Martin in 2012, suffered facial injuries Monday after a shooting at a busy intersection in Lake Mary.

Lake Mary Chief Steve Bracknell said the shooter is believed to be a man Zimmerman had a road-rage incident with in September, Matthew Apperson of Winter Springs.

No charges have been filed.

Zimmerman was released from a hospital in Sanford some kind of facial wound, possibly from flying glass or some other type of debris.

"I don't believe he had a direct hit with a bullet," said Don West, Zimmerman's attorney.
