Well, maybe not heroics precisely, but he took a risk in exposing himself to help others.

George Zimmerman Emerged From Hiding for Truck Crash Rescue
Source: ABC News
George Zimmerman, who has been in hiding since he was acquitted of murder in the death of Trayvon Martin, emerged to help rescue someone who was trapped in an overturned truck, police said today.
Sanford Police Department Capt. Jim McAuliffe told ABC News that Zimmerman "pulled an individual from a truck that had rolled over" at the intersection of a Florida highway last week.
The crash occurred at the intersection of I-4 and route 417, police said. The crash site is less than a mile from where he shot Martin.
It's the first known sighting of Zimmerman since he left the courtroom following his acquittal last week on murder charges for the death of Martin. Zimmerman, 29, shot and killed Martin, 17, in Sanford, Fla., on Feb. 26, 2012. The jury determined that Zimmerman shot Martin in self-defense.

3. I thought he lacked the physical strength.
Imagine that. He lied.
Beware people this man is not a cop. He's armed and dangerous at all times. Never forget that.

Too bad he didn't use that super human power to escape the clutches of 160lb child

12. So where and how is the victim?
Did this "rescue" cause further injury?
Pretty crappy reporting, ABC "News". This looks like a PR stunt, and you fools are falling for it - hook, line and sinker.

16. Oh come on you guys, people in this thread can't seriously be implying this was a conspriacy.
I swear sometimes we're no better than infowars on this kind of stuff.

22. It is so obviously a PR stunt that even a child couldn't fall for it.
If he is in hiding, how come he just happened to be at the crash site?
I think the Sanford police department is complicit in this as well because they did everything possible to get him acquitted after even refusing to charge him.

17. The rescued said "thank you George" at which point he felt endangered and shot/killed him
He felt endangered because he's gotten death threats and feared someone recognized him and might harm him.

Zimmerman is a physical weakling, so was stated at the trial.

Now I know why you don't see any Obama/Biden bumper stickers.......no one would stop to get a DUmmie out of a wrecked car/truck if it were marked with a DUmmie sticker.

As is being noted on Twitter by Brad Thor and others, 44 years to the date that Teddy Kennedy DIDN'T save Mary Jo Kopechne..

Brad Thor has also offered to buy Zimmerman a new pistol, any model he wants.

Wow! he should receive a medal, oh and a congratulations for his actions in pulling this man to safety.

So, the local Police Department - loving the fact that a non-white was acquitted of a white-on-black killing - arranged for a lorry to roll over whilst he was waiting just so he could rescue the occupants?
Yes, that makes sense, and Occam's Razor has no problem with it at all.

I wonder if the man he saved were black or white?

Well, they didn't disappoint. Exactly what I expected.
I wonder if the man he saved were black or white?
Kinda curious about that myself.

No. NRA. They have secret agents everywhere.

Had it been known he was there and could have done something to help but didn't, the same DUmmies would be bitching about that or blaming him for the roll over. ::)

One DUmmie insinuated that no one would want to be rescued by a murderer. Pretzels anyone ?

“If it’s not already out there, it’s going to be a running theme,†he said. “I’m telling you, the left is insane…This just can’t be — Zimmerman, a hero? The Zimmerman haters are going to say that this whole thing was staged.â€
Limbaugh theorized that the left would point to the fact that no one was injured in the car accident and even speculate on the race of the family Zimmerman helped following the accident.

Well of course they were white.
Had they been black, the cops would have found a baggie full of crack, and Zimmerman would be blamed for planting it.

They should make a TV show about Zimmerman. Make it like The Incredible Hulk, or The Fugitive, or Branded, or The A Team except every episode have Zimmerman save somebody but then have to move on to another town because his identity has been discovered and he has to find somewhere else to hide because the Black Panthers are hunting him down.

He fights crime, he rescues innocents, its a bird, its a plane, no its George Zimmerman, Superman.

Guess that whole fight or flight thing is a conspiracy as well.
