*Once again, George Zimmerman is at the center of another incident that brings out the authorities.
The Associated Press cites a police report that was released Monday which states that Zimmerman became angry with his ex-girlfriend and threw a wine bottle at her. The former neighborhood watchman denied the ex-girlfriends claim and disputed her accusation that he destroyed her cell phone last week. In Zimmermans eyes, he was only trying to prevent the ex-girlfriend from entering his home.
The AP noted that Zimmerman was arrested Friday in Lake Mary and charged with aggravated assault. He was ultimately released Saturday on $5,000 bond.
According too the report, the incident took place last week. Upon hearing the sound of glass shattering officers patrolling the neighborhood where Zimmerman lives saw the ex-girlfriend drive out of the driveway. The authorities ended up pulling her over for a traffic stop a few streets over because she didnt have her lights on.
The ex-girlfriend told officers that Zimmerman became angry after she told him she didnt want to take their relationship further. She added that they also argued over a painting she had that Zimmerman wanted returned. The ex-girlfriend went on to state that Zimmerman made threats and threw the wine bottle, which didnt hit her.
According to detectives, the ex-girlfriend was described as extremely emotional, crying, mad and upset and became reluctant to cooperate with them when she realized that officers might be conducting an investigation. She labeled her former boyfriend as that psycho, George Zimmerman and said several times that she should have known better than to get involved with him.
Zimmermans former girlfriend, whose name is redacted, told investigators that she had had an intimate relationship with him that had been going on since the end of last year. The report stated that the relationship between the former couple started at a time when, according to the ex-girlfriend, she was emotionally vulnerable.
The police report further noted that Zimmerman was arrested at his house on Friday, four days after the confrontation. Detectives with the case said in the report that Zimmerman refused to come to the door for more than two hours despite their repeated knocking and them hearing the television on and a dog barking.
