George Zimmerman arrested for aggravated assault with a weapon

George Zimmerman, the Florida man who was acquitted in 2013 of the shooting death of unarmed black teen Trayvon Martin, was arrested in Florida late Friday night on charges of aggravated assault with a weapon.
According to Seminole County booking documents, Zimmerman, 31, was arrested by the Lake Mary police and was booked at the John E. Polk Correctional Facility at 10:10 p.m.
He is being held without bond and will appear in court at 9 a.m.
Since his high-profile acquittal, Zimmerman has had three other encounters with the Lake Mary police.
In September 2013, Zimmerman's estranged wife, Shellie Zimmerman, called 911 to tell police he had punched her father and was threatening her with a gun. She optednot to press charges.
In the second incident, which occurred in November 2013, Zimmerman was arrested and accused of domestic violence by girlfriend Samantha Scheibe, who later said investigators had misinterpreted her statements and dropped charges.
In September 2014, Zimmerman was involved in an incident of road rage.
