LAKE MARY, Fla. —
Channel 9 has learned police were called Monday to a domestic disturbance involving George Zimmerman and a gun at a home in Lake Mary.
Police were called to the scene on Sprucewood Road about 2:30 p.m. though no other details have been released.
Last week, Zimmerman's wife, Shellie Zimmerman, filed for divorce, weeks after her husband's acquittal in the killing of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.

Well the later part about his hand on the gun doesn’t sound right, otoh there may have been a fight with her father. She also claims a neighbor saw all this and that GZ slashed her father’s Ipad with a knife.
Based on that call I sure think he’s getting arrested.
You’d think George would want to just get out of Florida and put this behind him.
He’s going to keep on until he runs into somebody who is going to kill him ‘for Trayvon’.
Unbelievable. This guy is showing little regard for the law since he got out. He’s already had two speeding tickets, and now he threatens his father in law with a gun? I mean, come on. I agree with his wife that he must really feel invincible after all this. This not normal behavior from someone who literally just avoided life in prison.
Your assumption of facts not in evidence is astounding, so I am forced to conclude you believe "Guilty until proven innocent," and he has not been proven innocent. That's why.
He’s been released, according to the Wash Times article.
My guess is his ex is making things up for attention and cash. Maybe we will be privy to the truth eventually.
Z is being sued by his former bodyguards??
Wow, no wonder people in this country won't stand up and do what is right...they'll not get any support.
Yet the constant barrage of criticism of those who won't is non stop here.
Sounds to me like maybe GZ and his father in law had a scuffle, probably throwing GZ out of the house. Father in law does not seem to want to take this as seriously as his daughter did.
Hard to say.
and just what brought you out of your hole today???
Things will not go well for the Probationer if it turns out she gave a false account to 911.
No longer in investigative custody, but still at the house. I wouldn’t assume either party is innocent here. Sounds like things flared up.
As far as the gun, I saw that in the UK Daily Mail. That's where I get off saying it. I was going to post the article on Free Republic, and someone had already posted. Here is a quote from the UK Daily Mail.
George Zimmerman has been taken into police custody after allegedly threatening his estranged wife and her father with a gun while she collected belongings just days after she filed for divorce.
Shellie Zimmerman called police to the home belonging to her parents, David and Machelle Dean, in Lake Mary, Florida at 2.15pm on Monday.
In her 911 call, she can be heard sobbing and pleading with police for help, claiming that Zimmerman punched her father in the noise and threatened to shoot them both.
'I'm really really afraid,' she says. 'I don't know what he's capable of. I'm really, really scared...
'He's in his car and he continually has his hand on his gun. He keeps staying "Step closer". He's just threatening all of us with his firearm. He's going to shoot us.
'He punched my dad in the nose. My dad has a mark on the face. I saw his glasses on the floor.'
Officers said a gun was found at the scene but there were no significant injuries. In the call Shellie requests medical help as she says her father is shaking and could have a heart attack.
Last week, Shellie Zimmerman filed for divorce from her husband of nearly seven years, claiming that their marriage was 'irretrievably broken' following his murder trial in the death of Trayvon Martin.
Friends told MailOnline that she had been collecting belongings from the home - where she stayed with Zimmerman during his trial - when her estranged husband turned up.
Police spokesman Zach Hudson told ClickOrlandothat police are 'trying to determine what exactly happened' but that Zimmerman has not been arrested.
Zimmerman's attorney Mark O'Mara also arrived at the house on Monday afternoon, and the police said Shellie and her father were consulting with their attorney to decide whether to press charges.
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, Leanne Benjamin, a key defense witness at the trial and friend of George and Shellie for more than a decade, reacted to news of Zimmerman's arrest.
Speaking from her Lake Mary home, she said: 'I'm relieved. He was a powder keg waiting to blow... I feel relieved now that he... might get some quiet time and some psychological help.
'If he had run into a stranger and got into an altercation he might have hurt someone or ended up hurt or dead himself.'
Her husband, Vietnam vet and army medic John Donnelly, added: 'As far as we understand Shellie had gone back to the house - a property owned by her father - to collect some belongings.
'Her father was with her. It was one of the places they stayed for about six months during the trial.
'George showed up with his gun. It was a domestic altercation. Shellie was getting stuff, her father wants to clear the house out to sell it.'
He added: 'I would have taken that gun from him and thrown it into the nearest lake.'

Well now the mystery is solved of the early years of Lazamataz.
Smokes out the idiots though, so I guess it serves a purpose.
LOL....
I call BS that he threatened anyone with a gun. Most likely a heated argument.

I hope he comes to his senses and gets out of Florida before some thug kills him 'for Trayvon'.
