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.
Zimmerman has not spoken publicly about what happened, but that night, Feb. 26, and in later meetings he described and re-enacted for police what he says happened.
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.

You should have been more specific in what you were requesting dude but I finally figured out what you wanted.
It's contained in this article. Why the MSM hasn't obtained a copy of that report, wellllll, guess you have to ask them............
This is the preferred attack method of these snakes and they have killed a person here in St. Louis with it.
Wonder if Obama will claim this oxygen stealer as well?
Good point. Deserves an entire vanity post of its own.
Don't you mean K.D. Lang was on the Today Show this morning?
Are you all older than dirt? Have you ever heard of brainstorming and putting everything on the table? I’ll be back with an “I told you so” when daddy’s ties to the police dept. of Sanford is confirmed or denied by a reliable news source. I’m hearing more cries of racism here than at other sites. This site has become smear Trayvon central. I’m going to look for Zimmerman’s dad myself this afternoon. You guys appear too set in your ways and are determined to make this about race and I have talked race next to nothing compared to some of you.
I said in a thread yesterday that based on what was out there in the news it may have been a bad shoot, but this story blows that out of the water. If the kid started the escalation with a punch and was on top of Zimmerman smashing his head in, it not only is a good shoot but seems to have saved his life and possibly others lives had that drug using kid gotten a hold of Zimmerman’s gun and then went out looking to score.
I was just asking if you had a link to the article so I could read it.
Now where in the heck did he say that??????????
Jeez, the pitchforkers are embellishing more and more here.........
For the record: Floridians are not racist. There are too many transplants who reside here. They can all bring their pimpmobiles down here and play the race card. Floridians know the truth.
The citizenry demand an investigation. They'll get one. Peace out.
Again, the Dems and their slaves don’t CARE if this kid was right or wrong...Jessie and Al are just happy he’s dead and they can make more blood money...
According to the transcripting the dispatcher asked him if he was FOLLOWING, to which he said yes. I didn’t see anything about “pursuing.”
That may seem like semantics but in a legal venue, if I turn on the lights and sirens of my police vehicle and go after a vehicle or person with the intent to capture or stop them, I am pursuing.
If I am just following them around the neighborhood because of suspicious activity, that is all that it is, following.
Not pursuing, not stalking.
Here is another people thing are forgetting to look at. Zimmerman said in his call that Martin was acting suspiciously, then started walking toward HIM with his hand in his waistband.
This is a common thug tactic to intimidate people into making people think they are armed. Or it could have been Martin playing with himself, something thugs do often in public.
Either way, it further aroused Zimmerman’s suspicions and when Martin ran, Zimmerman followed. If he is guilty of anything, it’s not being a coward.
Having said that, one of the first things you have to train new cops is don’t be in too damn of a hurry to chase people off into the dark. Gang members have used this tactic to kill officers by separating them from their partners and laying up an ambush, sometimes even coordinated ones.
Zimmerman was no police officer, surely, but he is/was not going to let the usual suspects take over his neighborhoods like so many have in the past.
Indeed.
I fear Z WILL BE RAILROADED.
Remember Rodney King and the riots that happened after the facts came out? You think The Messiah’s thugs, like Holder, will let this crisis go to waste? No way.
Info I acquired has been turned over to an investigative reporter whom I trust to confirm or deny.
Translation: I'm an internet phony who posts bogus claims to "sources I can not divulge" and have critical information that can only be revealed to my secret sources
I generally take people at their word.

Unprovoked deadly attacks like that by blacks are fairly common and occur on a regular basis. YouTube depicts many of these events very clearly.
I applaud and respect you for your willingness to let facts shape your opinion.
Sorry, never worked retail per se,, kids dress like thugs these days, its the thing.. something definitely keyed this ‘thug’ .. haven’t heard gang mentioned.. which makes it hurt even more for the families.
I am used to seeing a lot of ‘suspicious’ folk around, I live just north of east san jose. They got a pretty good mix of everything there and closeby is heavily flavored too so to speak. Cops usually shoot first and then clean up afterwards.
I hear you on always having your ‘ears’ up,, , I caution my wife on being aware of her surroundings ,, she likes the SF and Chinatown scene for shopping and fun.
Agree, and as such, they should be a primer for those who are interested in maintaining their continued good health.
I am of no doubt that if Trayvon Martin had a few compatriots with him, Zimmerman would have been stomped to death.
Then don't...not on the internet. If a person's claim sounds outrageous then it probably is. If a person claims to "have sources" but fails to list them then it's probably false.
Why would anyone who is trustworthy with critical information even attempt to allude to such information and at the same time say "I can't tell you my source" or "I can't tell you anything more" unless they are frauds whose sole reason for those statements is to garner attention to themselves?
