Excerpts from the article:
"With a single punch, Trayvon Martin decked the Neighborhood Watch volunteer who eventually shot and killed the unarmed 17-year-old, then Trayvon climbed on top of George Zimmerman and slammed his head into the sidewalk several times, leaving him bloody and battered, authorities have revealed to the Orlando Sentinel.
That is the account Zimmerman gave police, and much of it has been corroborated by witnesses, authorities say."
"In his version of events, he had turned around and was walking back to his SUV when Trayvon approached him from behind, the two exchanged words then Trayvon punched him in the nose, sending him to the ground, and began beating him."
"Trayvon was visiting his father's fiancée, who lived there. He had been suspended from school in Miami after being found with an empty marijuana baggie. Miami schools have a zero-tolerance policy for drug possession."

God, there is about 50 threads about Trayvon on DU. This was posted not that long ago. It's a huge campfire.

So it was a dark and raining night, A 6'3" male is walking through a neighborhood and out of the blue he finds a strange male following him.
An adult under these circumstanses would become apprensive at this point. What happend from there on is anyones guess, did the Boy stand his ground against a stranger, Did the stranger have any reason to be following the Male 6"3" tall??????
So a fight insued for some unknown reason, the stranger got his nose broken and a bad gash on his head, then he shot the boy in self defence.
None of this would have happend had the stranger stayed in his car and not stalked the boy.

I haven't heard or read about this question; but it's probably been asked somewhere....
Is there any indication that Zimmerman knew Trayvon was black when he started following him? I'm asking because it was dark and the kid had a hoodie over his head.

Vesta, it's people like you getting onto juries which makes life wonderful for personal injury attorneys and other slickie boys.
