George Zimmerman was involved in a shooting Monday in Lake Mary, Florida.

According to WESH, the shooting involved two men and Zimmerman suffered a minor gunshot wound and was taken to a local hospital.

"The injuries are not serious," Lake Mary Deputy Police Chief Colin Morgan said.

"I don't know exactly what precipitated it, but another motorist pulled up alongside him and fired a shot at him," Zimmerman's attorney Don West said. "I believe that the window of the vehicle was broken.  As I understand it he was shot through the passenger window and the bullet narrowly missed his head and lodged the roof."

Morgan said the other man reportedly has been involved in other cases with Zimmerman in the past.

He added that Zimmerman will be brought to the police station when he leaves the hospital.

“[Zimmerman] walked normally into the ambulance, so he wasn’t being helped or nothing,” witness Ricardo Berrare told WESH.

I don't think he's a very intelligent person, but I kind of feel sorry for him.

He is a marked man and a target for left wing lunatics and racists.

George Zimmerman is the only person who, after being shot (or shot at), is described by the media as 'being involved in a shooting', as opposed to 'was shot' or 'was the victim'.

Even from Fox News.

Good thing he wasn't raped.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

I'm guessing that at the least, Fox didn't change AP's title. It may be that they are not allowed to if they publish/broadcast AP material.

"involved in a Florida shooting"

Really, Zim really should change his appearance and leave the state for his own good.

Involved, eh?

Yup.

Just like Gov. Connally was involved in the Kennedy assassination.
