ORLANDO — George Zimmerman was involved in a shooting along Lake Mary Boulevard and Rinehart Road around 1:00 p.m. Monday.

Initial reports said Zimmerman suffered a minor gunshot wound. New reports say a bullet missed Zimmerman’s head, but he was sprayed with glass from his windshield and another debris in the shooting in the Orlando suburb of Lake Mary, his attorney Don West said.

He walked to the ambulance on his own. The shooting appears to be related to road rage. Zimmerman was taken to an emergency room and has since been released. Police have identified the shooter as Matthew Apperson. Apperson and Zimmerman were involved in a separate road rage incident last year.

In January, Zimmerman was accused of assault by his girlfriend, but no charges were filed after she recanted her allegation.

He was also arrested in November 2013 on domestic violence allegations after his girlfriend called police. His girlfriend later recanted her story and charges were never filed.

Zimmerman was acquitted in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in 2013.
