George Zimmerman Shot During Altercation With Another Man In Florida.

George Zimmerman has been injured after he was shot at during an altercation with another man in Florida, according to reports.

The bullet missed the former neighborhood watch volunteer, who was acquitted in 2013 of murdering Trayvon Martin, but he suffered cuts to the face after his vehicle's windshield shattered, his attorney told WESH.

Police said his injuries are only minor and he has now left hospital.

'He walked normally into the ambulance, so he wasn't being helped or nothing,' witness Ricardo Berrare told WESH.

The shooting unfolded on Lake Mary Boulevard around 12.45pm. Police initially said the incident appeared to be road rage related, but Lake Mary Chief Steve Bracknell told the Orlando Sentinel that Zimmerman knows the other man.

A bullet hole could be seen in the passenger window of Zimmerman's Honda Ridgeline SUV as it was towed away.

Kenneth Cornell, who works nearby on Waymont Court, told WESH that the alleged shooter approached him and said: 'I shot George Zimmerman.'

Cornell called 911 and the alleged shooter spoke to the dispatcher to explain what had happened.

He claimed he only took out his gun and fired after Zimmerman pulled out his own weapon and waved it around, Cornell told CNN. The man is cooperating with authorities.
